Next Workshop Date TBD
Apply a creative, joyful lens to the work you do! This virtual workshop will help us explore how to get & keep joy in the workplace.
Why explore joy? Research shows the significant physical benefits of joy, to our minds and bodies. In addition to feeling better, joyful workplaces are 31% more productive! Joyful employees take 10x fewer sick days! Joy is a powerful tool for our work. Through interactive exercises we’ll utilize the power of creative thinking to discover the role of joy in our work experience, helping us shift perspective and see our organizations and ourselves in a new way. .
P.S. A joy workshop is just that - joyful and fun! This won't be your standard Zoom meeting. Cameras on, we'll be interacting a lot. We'll also send you additional prompts and resources to strengthen your joy practice. Once you purchase this workshop, you'll receive an email with details to join via Zoom.
*This listing is for individuals to join a public workshop with folks from various companies and sectors. If you'd like to host a private workshop just for your group, check out the group listing here.
