Team Care, not Self-Care: Surviving in an Era of Burnout
This session helps organizations build more effective work-teams. We'll examine our self-care strategies and turn them into "team-care" to support our allies and teammates. Utilizing audience challenges, humor, and brain science, Susan's webinar will help each participant understand how they can juice up their team's productivity as well as their collective joy and impact.
Since we must support each other through our stressful nonprofit work ... tools, tips and best practices will be demonstrated (and downloaded) on how to build connection and camaraderie within teams.
Learning Objectives:
Practice three new skills for burnout prevention
Share tools for building cultures of team-care and well-being
Learn brain science behind stress & nervous system management
Course Format
This course is the recording of a live webinar and contains the slides and full audio from the original presentation (including Q & A sessions). Only a reasonably current version of FlashPlayer is needed to run this recording (most computers already have this installed).
