Understand Your S.O.S.: How Self, Others, & Systems Impact Your Transition

Transitions are moments of truth and exploration that require attention to your own S.O.S. This workshop addresses these three dimensions of your journey and provides tips and tools, insights from success stories, and actions to take to make your move successful.

  • Self:  Through stories, tools, and writing exercises you will leave with new insights on how to listen to yourself.
  • Others: Through individual and group exercises we will identify concrete steps to make progress toward a path of connections.
  • Systems: We will draw on both the questions and expertise of the participants to identify important steps to take to master the systems that drive our lives and work.
