Repairing Relationships and Transforming Conflict to Rebuild Employee Trust and Morale
In an era of chaos and uncertainty, many workplaces are stuck in survival mode. When we operate from a survival mindset rather than a cognitive one, trust erodes, tensions rise, and our ability to connect with colleagues and leaders diminishes. But humans are wired for connection; we crave relational repair and authentic interactions.
This talk explores how to rebuild trust, strengthen relationships, and create resilient work communities. By understanding the impact of stress on workplace dynamics and embracing strategies for relational repair, we can foster a culture of connection that supports both organizational longevity and individual well-being.
