A two-hour asynchronous course for leaders and teams
The Fundamental Building Blocks of Trusting Relationships
Trust-building delivered in a whole new way...
This training focuses on the fundamental way that humans create psychological safety with each other - by being a presence that feels safe to be with and to connect with. We do this through emotional regulation.
As companies grow and face increasing challenges, leaders who can manage their emotions effectively stand out for their dependability and their capacity to steer teams through difficult times.
Understanding emotional regulation involves recognizing, interpreting, and being intentional in our emotional responses. It goes beyond merely understanding our emotions and involves shaping how we respond to them. The language of regulation is the language of safety - both for ourselves and for others.
We can create all the checklists, scripts, guides, and step-by-step processes to learn how to build strong teams and relationships, but if we don't possess emotional regulation skills, they're all for nothing. The most powerful strategy we can have to connect with others and to build trusting relationships is ourselves.
This training is key to creating psychological safety at work because it helps establish a stable and supportive environment where individuals feel comfortable expressing themselves without fear of negative repercussions. When leaders and team members manage their emotions effectively, they create a climate of trust and openness, reducing the likelihood of emotional outbursts or unpredictable behavior that could make others feel anxious or unsafe.
This fosters open communication, as employees are more likely to share ideas, concerns, and feedback when they know they won’t be met with harsh or reactive responses. Additionally, emotional regulation promotes empathy and respect, allowing for healthier conflict resolution and greater collaboration.
Learning simple practices that help with regulation mean interactions with colleagues and team members will be healthier, consistent, and more productive.
