Emotional Intelligence has long been discussed as a requirement for the "soft skills" in organizations, the things considered secondary after ensuring policies and procedures were firmly in place. Turns out, however, that the most mentally well, productive, and best-led teams these days have a clear understanding of emotional intelligence. Despite technological advances that allow for efficiency and less face-to-face connection than ever before, we cannot automate relationships.
In this talk, Dr. Jody Carrington helps audiences understand how to perceive better, control, and evaluate emotions, both in oneself and in others. This leads to more impactful leadership, reduces experiences of burnout and helps people better navigate challenging conversations and change.
From a neuro-physiological perspective, we will walk through what it means to access the best parts of ourselves and our employees and discuss practical, easily implemented strategies to create the most successful, connected teams.
Dr. Jody Carrington has inspired many to consider the capacity for reconnection as the foundation of every healthy, authentic relationship. We are not born with the ability to repair ruptures; we must learn to do this as we build strong cultures. These relationships are the foundation of a successful company, team, or community. Dr. Carrington is one of North America’s top psychologists, bringing a unique and often hilarious take on what it means to master the art of reconnection.
As a clinical psychologist and practitioner within various organizations, Dr. Jody Carrington believes that every successful team must have the inherent ability to repair and reconnect if they ever hope to serve their clients well. In this keynote, she addresses the essentials of leadership that are often overlooked - building healthy foundational relationships that foster a positive, dynamic workplace. By combining her expertise as a workplace leader and clinical psychologist, Dr. Carrington motivates leaders and teams to change their team-building approach from the inside out. Bringing fresh ways of thinking to classic problems and bringing uplifting (and hilarious) stories to elevate the message, audiences leave inspired and empowered to make change.
Celebrated clinical psychologist Dr. Jody Carrington reminds us that it’s never about what’s wrong with you; it’s about what has happened to you – and, more importantly, how you make sense of it all. As a former Civilian Member of the RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) and a clinical psychologist working with children and families managing significant trauma, Dr. Carrington combines research and experience to highlight the importance of understanding trauma from a systems-level as the key to healthy, productive employees. Her ability to explain the effects of trauma and the often-isolating costs of enduring difficult things will leave audiences inspired and with a clear direction forward on how to rebuild organizations and families.
Many organizations continue to witness the impact of burnout, with reduced morale, low productivity and a lack of innovation. Emotional exhaustion, a lack of compassion, and an experience of futility have become common experiences for many teams. Dr. Jody Carrington has begun walking hundreds of organizations through reconnection to combat burnout and build mental resilience. She provides specific strategies to shift culture, bringing hilarity and truth while reigniting purpose and productivity with this game-changing talk.
