How to Optimize Performance and Fulfillment
As we emerge from a global pandemic, thousands of employees want a fresh start and new beginning. They think they needed to change careers or organizations to be happier again – only to find out a few months later that wherever you go, there you are. In this inspiring and timely keynote talk, Sarah makes the case that remote and hybrid work policies are only a band-aid solution for a much bigger challenge: corporations and employees alike must have a better understanding of what will truly motivate and engage the workforce of the future.
Sarah will share how both companies and individuals can excel in this new world of work where one’s individual identity, priorities, and sources of joy have been questioned and considered more than ever. And one in which a manager’s investment in their direct reports’ emotional well-being, and not just in their performance, is going to make the difference between an organization that survives and one that thrives.
A deep dive version of the keynote talk, this four-part workshop series will empower your workforce to find a deeper sense of fulfillment and reach their full potential in work and life.

Managing Change: How to gain clarity and take action during uncertain times.
When the only constant thing in life is change, why is it still so challenging for us to manage it? When we think of change management, we think of a robust strategy to regulate the impact of large-scale organizational changes. Yet we, as individuals, when we’re dealing with our own version of massive change, try to manage it by ourselves without a plan or support system in place.

Feel Empowered
Support Each Other
Create A Plan
In this workshop, Sarah shows how we can take complex change management practices typically used for organizational change, simplify them, and practically apply them to ourselves to influence our desired outcomes and reduce uncertainty.
You’ll learn how to approach changes in your work and life with the structure and support that you deserve. The more you can be a champion of change, channel your energy into solution-oriented ideas and focus on what you can influence, the more successful outcomes you’ll experience.

Work Styles: How different ways of working impact individual and team performance.

When you understand your behavioral style, you can use this information to lean into your strengths and become an invaluable member of your team.
