The Emotional Culture Deck - 'Have a play' Workshop

For Leaders who care about humanising the workplace. Come and have a play with The Emotional Culture Deck.

In this highly interactive and hands-on workshop, you'll learn how to use the Emotional Culture Deck in 3 key areas we believe are a essential to successful leadership:

EFFECTIVE TEAM CHECK-INS
HUMAN CENTRED LEADERSHIP
LEADING CHANGE
IMPACTFUL STAKEHOLDER & CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIPS.

You will be posed a bunch of 'beautiful questions' to explore around these 3 areas and use the ECD as tool to navigate these questions.

It’s a ‘sandpit environment’ where you come along, get your hands on the deck and experiment and learn together.

This half day event is a must have addition to your leadership development that you can use straight away and literally 'out of the box'.

There are only 20 spots availble so get in quick.

Better workplace culture starts with the F word. Feelings.

Most organisations underestimate the influence emotion has on their culture and leadership. But as a people leader, you know that when engagement and morale improve, so do productivity and employee retention. The Emotional Culture Deck adds a powerful tool to your belt for enabling human conversations and bottom-up culture change.

Increase engagement and morale

The emotional culture of an organisation influences employee satisfaction, wellbeing, burnout, teamwork, and even hard measures such as financial performance and absenteeism. But organisations (and leaders) often don’t talk about emotion. Many lack confidence in their ‘soft skills’.

Have the right tools on hand to help your organisation thrive

The Emotional Culture deck helps you flip that conversation. It’s a simple card game toolkit that helps leaders uncover what truly motivates their people, and map desired team culture. As empathy, connections, and trust develop, results go up - and your people advice proves its value yet again.

Drive human conversations about what really matters in the workplace

In this workshop come play with the ECD and learn how to use the Emotional Culture Deck to drive human conversations about what really matters in the workplace.
