Showing Vulnerability as a Leader

We’ve all heard as leaders that practicing vulnerability can enhance connection and enable trust-building with the people we most need to influence and engage. But the act of making yourself vulnerable—and knowing exactly when and how to do so—can be difficult and scary, and it’s easier said than done. Join us online for an interactive workshop that will help you practice vulnerability on a day-to-day basis, often in small and meaningful ways, as a leader. Through a mix of reflection, presentation, and group discussion, we’ll explore the following questions: WHAT: What is vulnerability and what is its role in leadership practice? WHEN: In what kinds of situations is vulnerability most beneficial and appropriate to share and when is it appropriate to set boundaries? HOW: What are some easy-to-implement practical strategies I can use to help me overcome my barriers with vulnerability? You will leave equipped with specific verbal and non-verbal strategies you can use to model and encourage vulnerability in your daily leadership practice.
