One effect of the pandemic is that many individuals have realized that some part of their work life needs to be changed. Many have experienced a professional loss and need to find new job, some just want a new way to work, while others have realized a strong desire to change careers.
These professional transitions can cause anxiety and uncertainty but can also be exciting and empowering— particularly when there is support, and a tried-and-true process, to teach you how to build resilience in uncertainty, work from your values and effectively move through major change.
Research has shown that how well you navigate change, and the transition that follows it, has a direct impact on the degree of well-being, purpose, and satisfaction you experience on a day-to-day basis.
The Life Balance Institute has been offering weekend workshops, 1:1 coaching and class series for over thirty years. For the first time we are offering a daylong format, tailored to the needs of the workplace. The workshop will be led by Ron Ames and Maria Egan, both award winning creative executives and leaders in their respective fields of the film and music industries, and Certified Change & Transition Strategists and mindfulness educators
Together, we’ll be learning principles about the nature of change and how it we navigate it in our professional lives, mapping adult stages of development, as well as mindfulness practices to help you move through times of change with more balance. You will also be offered a series of self-assessments and tools from the Life Balance Institute that have helped countless individuals step into greater alignment with their creativity and the new world we find ourselves in.
In this workshop, you can learn skills to effectively respond to change including:
- Using the “Journey through Change” as a map to locate yourself in the process of your current change
- Explore your values and essential intentions to help guide your next steps
- Assessing what parts of your life are out of balance
- Gaining insights about your strengths, challenges, and habits of mind in dealing with uncertainty and change
- Creating a strategy for effectively navigating your change
Expect a day of dynamic inquiry and learn to meet change with authenticity, confidence, and clarity
