Master any workplace conflict with confidence and ease, have less drama, better results, and thrive at work. When there are problems to solve, and people who care (and there are so many things to care about), you’ll face conflict. And if you want to have more success, influence, and joy in your work, you’ve got to navigate it well. But conflict is hard. You weren’t born knowing the perfect words to say when you’re angry, dealing with a jerk, or when someone calls your game-changing idea “stupid.” You’ll leave with the courage, confidence, and competence to navigate even the trickiest conflict scenarios and build better, lasting collaboration. You will learn 1) Research-based reasons why conflict is so hard now-- and inspiration to have the conversation you would rather avoid. 2) The 4 Cs of more productive conflict and how to apply them to even the most challenging scenarios. 3) 12 Powerful Phrases for navigating any workplace conflict. 4) Practical techniques and tools to foster deeper trust and collaboration.

 

 

 

 

Enhancing the mental health of school staff is crucial for fostering a positive environment for students. Our nervous systems are interconnected, meaning that educators and staff cannot cultivate optimal conditions for student well-being if they are stressed, overwhelmed, or under-supported. This conversation with Michelle Kinder, Chief Mental Health Officer at Tacky Box, and co-author of "WHOLE: What Teachers Need to Help Students Thrive," will explore the importance of prioritizing mental health and provide evidence-based strategies to help you effectively manage your nervous system, creating a healthier environment for both you and your students.

 

 

 

 

Today’s employees are seeking work that is both meaningful and supportive of their well-being. While many believe a job in education meets both needs, it is the school’s culture that meets those needs. A school that wants to be known for its positive community and culture must be intentional about creating this. Join Mary Katherine Duffy and Rob Devlin as they welcome back Christy Heno, a culture and engagement coach at the Presbyterian School in Houston. Christy will give her best tips for building culture in a school community.

 

 

 

 

Episcopal Identity is a crucial part of an Episcopal School and yet many people are still unsure of exactly what it means. What makes us different? Join Mary Katherine Duffy and Dr. Chris Carter as they welcome two chaplains from SAES schools to have a conversation about the meaning of Episcopal Identity and how it can be cultivated in your school.
