These changes include:

• Working from home; remote communication

• Major changes in all areas of life at one time

• Taking on new roles and responsibilities

• Exciting breakthroughs in innovation and abilities

• Feeling isolated, even when we ARE together

• Pivoting our business strategies

• Compounded workload for some organizations and roles

• Getting more personal than ever!

These stressors, both good and challenging, are very real. When they push our limits, it may cause us to shut down or even give up.

To support leaders, GVG created a positive, motivational program to help team members deal with all of this change. We bring hands-on, highly interactive workshops and coaching to help your people not just survive, but thrive during this interesting time!

And we make it very easy on HR and L&D professionals by providing turnkey communication and technology support as part of the rollout.

Objectives

• Develop awareness and compassion for self and others during this time

• Build skills and tools for resilience during massive change

• Drive conversations around personal topics and challenges

• Re-enforce leader skills for the human-based approach required to build trust and collaboration for team effectiveness

Unique Program Structure

Components are live, personal and delivered virtually by GVG facilitators, allowing for the greatest flexibility for your team members and their schedules

Effective leadership skills are reinforced as a by-product of the “all hands” training process creating a more holistic, applied experience for both leaders and team members

Small team or group coaching creates in the moment, real-time support and connection among team members, building trust and support from each other

Growing Through Challenging Times

At GVG, our programs are rooted in psychology and research and based on how we grow and change as people.

Step 1 is always Awareness. If we don’t know where we are now and where we want to go, it is hard to find the life or strategy we want to experience. Compassion in Crisis (Module 1) creates awareness of our current situation and teaches strategies to move us forward.

Step 2 is Choice. Once we know where we want to go, we can make deliberate choices to build resilience, change behavior and choose our mindset. Be Bamboo (Module 2) focuses on building mental resilience muscles every day.

Step 3 is Connection. Creating a deliberate and collaborative state of work while building trust can be more difficult in the world of remote work and requires new skills for many of us. #In-It-Together (Module 3) explores psychological safety, trust and enhanced communication to drive greater links back to each other.

Module 1:

Compassion in Crisis; Learning to Thrive

With the acceleration of change in the world, we can find ourselves struggling to accept new situations and release the way things used to be. The last 12 months have been an important experiment in our ability to deal with change. Topics include how to find both the gifts and challenges in crisis, using the grief change cycle for compassion and strategies for thriving when things get tough or overwhelming.

Module 2:

Be Bamboo; Building Strength and Flexibility

Resilience skills are critical for dealing with all the change in our lives. Like working out a bicep in the gym, resilience is a muscle that can also be built. Be Bamboo shares strategies and research for building personal resilience muscles and why it is important for mental and work well being. As the pace of change in the world rises, increasing our tolerance for “future shock” helps us adapt and helps transformation efforts “stick”.

Module 3:

#In-It-Together; Developing Trust and Connection for our Future

We are hard-wired for connection. Psychological safety and trust are the top factors for successful teams and relationships. However, shared purpose also plays a critical role in the effectiveness of great teams. We explore these topics to develop strategies for how to create more fulfillment in work and life through better connections and teams.
