Setting & Enforcing Boundaries So That You Can Thrive At Work

One of the most important leadership and well-being skills is having the confidence to set and enforce boundaries, so that you can focus on the work that matters. While there are some factors in both career and life that you have little or no control over (like the organisational workload, the state of the economy etc) there are things that we as individuals can do to take back some control over our mindset, our mental health and our well being.
In this interactive webinar, executive coaches, authors and gender equity advocates, Kate Boorer and Fiona Pearman will share the insights, mindset and frameworks that have equipped thousands of women to protect their time (& sanity!) by learning how to say No with Confidence.

Drawing on their extensive experience with clients and personal stories, this webinar will support you implement practical tools to manage and protect your time, so you can achieve your biggest goals.

In this dynamic session, you will learn how to:
– Face your fears and address the roadblocks that stand in the way of prioritising and protecting your time
– Gain clarity and perspective on how to negotiate the no
– Get back in the driver’s seat of your career by setting and enforcing boundaries in a way that lands well

Rules of Belonging: Cultural Literacy with Fiona Robertson

Culture is one of the most widely discussed and widely misunderstood concepts in business today. It’s impossible to have a sensible conversation about it without a shared understanding of what you’re discussing. Shared language is essential to make any progress at all.

If you’re living inside the Matrix, and you don’t know it, you won’t see anything. Once you understand how culture really works, you see it everywhere and begin to understand the pervasive impact it has on every aspect of organisational life.

Culture change isn’t easy, but it can be simple. One of the reasons so many organisations fail to make progress on culture is because it has been vastly overcomplicated, which often relegates it to the ‘too hard’ basket. If you’re looking for clarity, you’ll find it here.

Bust the Box: Transforming Limiting Mindsets with Suzanne Mercier

Mindset drives everything and in arriving at our perspective of ourselves, the work world around us and other people, we have created a box that contains all we know and keeps out the things we don’t know or agree with. That mindset box guides the stories we tell ourselves. It directly impacts our performance, our relationships with others, how much money we think we’re worth, what significant opportunities we believe we’re capable of stepping up for. And the truth is, we’re so much more than that box. We’re more powerful than we believe we are. Time to Bust the Box, to recognise your own potential and know you’re capable of achieving it. In this webinar, you’ll learn about:

– Understanding your mindset

– How we create stories that bind us and the impact they have

– Looking at life, work, relationships, opportunity through a lens that may not give us a clear picture

– Recognising that our mindset can separate us from a broader picture of reality and possibility.
