The Northwest MHTTC is excited to collaborate with Lamarr Lewis of Lewis Family Consulting to offer a live learning community in summer 2023 focusing on holistic leadership. Each session includes expert-led instruction and experiential learning.
Up to 8 hours of Continuing Education (CE) credits* (see bottom of page) are available.
This learning community will focus on helping participants develop the tools needed to become effective change agents within their circles of influence. By viewing leadership from a holistic and adaptive perspective, participants will leave with actionable items to create more supportive workplace cultures. The goal is to help identify issues that cause burnout, increase staff turnover, and decrease morale, before they develop into larger problems, while enabling participants to become a model for those they lead, collaborate with, and serve.
Goals:
September 1
Effective Communication: Building Connections through Self-Determined Collaboration
September 8
Self-Care: Promoting Collective Wellness, Resilience, and Stress Management
September 15
Emotional Awareness: Understanding the Feelings of Ourselves and Others
September 22
Compassion: Creating a Relationship-Based Culture and Shared Vision
