Most change management thinking still assumes change has a shape: a beginning, a middle, an end. Announce it, manage the dip, reach the other side. That model made sense when organizations moved through discrete moments, a merger, a reorg, a system rollout, with real space in between them.
That world is gone. Change now arrives continuously and on top of itself. There's no "other side" to reach, because the next change is already underway before the last one lands.
This workshop starts from that reality instead of pretending change is still episodic. Drawing on Karen's experience as a former Head of Culture at General Electric and Head of Leadership Development at Deloitte, participants learn what it actually takes to help people function, focus, and perform when the ground doesn't stop moving. The core idea: change management can't be a separate initiative rolled out during turbulence, it has to be built into how leaders think, communicate, and decide every day. Leadership isn't something that happens alongside change. Leading IS change.
Participants leave able to recognize over-rotation before it erodes trust, build change communication that lands with people who aren't already on board, and help their teams focus on what's known and controllable instead of spinning on what isn't.

Our fixed commodity is energy - not time. Leaders are responsible for creating an environment that is trusting, inclusive, and resilient.
Each person's capacity varies wildly in the same 24 hours due to our energy. When we feel a lack of trust, energy goes to anticipating how to do the work, instead of actually doing it.
When you get to spend your time doing the things that make you feel strong, you have stronger performance and faster resilience. When time is spent on things that deplete you, they take much longer to complete and longer time to recover.
Neglecting the energy of leadership can lead to slower resilience and ultimately burn out for leaders and teams.
This hands-on virtual or in-person workshop helps participants to:
Define the energy of their leadership
Assessing thinking, communicating and decision making preferences
Identifying individual strengths and weaknesses.
Intentionally planning to manage individual and team energy.
Bringing out the strengths of your teams.
Leveraging tools to foster trust.
Shaping culture on teams.
Incorporating the Healthy Team Checkup into the team’s operating rhythm.
