Trust Chats Live
In September, I relaunched the Growing Trust Series, my leadership courses focused on building teams based on trust, feedback, and resiliency. I gathered a lot of excellent feedback from clients, partners, and friends who took the first version of the courses, Trust Together and Trust You, and used it to boost the learning experience. i am really excited about how these courses have evolved!
To celebrate the relaunch, I held three mini sessions called Trust Chats Live. In these casual, hour-long sessions, I talked about the leadership topics I get asked about most frequently. I’m hosting the recordings of these sessions here so you can tap in even if you couldn’t make it to the live chats!
Trust Chat Live #1: How to Give Feedback to Your Boss
In this Trust Chat, I unpack why power dynamics make feedback extra tricky and how you can still have those conversations with confidence and clarity while remaining grounded. We explore how to frame feedback so it’s heard (and not just endured), the role of empathy and curiosity, and how to protect your relationships while speaking your truth.
Trust Chat Live #2: Why Gossip Is the Ultimate Toxic Workplace Impulse
We’ve all been there — leaning in for that “just between you and me” comment. In this session, we’ll talk about why gossip is the fast track to eroding trust, derailing focus, and makes it harder to get work done. I will break down the hidden costs of gossip, the brain science behind why it’s so tempting, and the healthier alternatives that actually strengthen relationships. You’ll leave with practical ways to stop gossip in its tracks—without becoming the office killjoy.
Trust Chat Live #3: Leading Change From Where You Are
Leading change is hard. Leading change without a fancy title or corner office? Even harder. In this lively chat, I help you rethink what it means to have influence even when you’re not “in charge.” We talk about understanding your sphere of influence, fostering relationships, and avoiding the slow slide into cynicism when you feel stuck. This one’s for anyone who wants to make a difference without losing their spark.
Looking for more? The Growing Trust Series has even more to learn about leading effective teams, building a positive feedback culture, and staying positive despite life’s setbacks.
