Building Unshakeable Teamwork and Trust

You’ve seen it: avoidance, talking about others instead of talking to them, rumors, negative speculation, factions, and lack of trust. We’ve heard about the negativity bias of the brain, and growing incivility at work. Sometimes we feel hopeless. Is THIS human nature?

Learn why negative assumptions pick up momentum and spread, how to short-circuit destructive disagreement, extinguish incivility, and eliminate unconscious behaviors that spark toxic power struggles and cycles of mistrust.

Join us and discover practical strategies that tap into the desire to belong, the physiological need to connect, and our deep desires to feel appreciated and respected.
