Half day professional development session for business leaders in high-stress and rapidly changing organizations

Stress, burnout and fatigue can cost millions in lost revenue, lost talent and lost clients. Has burnout crept into your professional life? How about your team? Are any people you rely on at risk of burnout, disengagement and lower productivity?

Burnout is not a "given," and it is not something we must accept. Rather, you can avoid it by developing resilience, an easy trait to build in yourself and foster in others. 

How? Through neuroscience, and that's not a joke. Resiliency is a leadership skill that will set you apart from the pack, and with the science on our side, we'll prove it to you. 

 Come to the Summit to learn neuroscience-based techniques to:

  • navigate stress,
  • optimize your mindset,
  • increase engagement, and
  • power up with a new edge to achieve peak performance and enhance the bottom line.

The Problem

According to surveys: about 75% of Americans experience moderate to severe stress on a daily basis. Even worse, more than 90% of leaders have experienced symptoms of burnout, which include feelings of fatigue, disconnection in relationships and reduced significance at work. When leaders suffer, the culture and performance of their organizations and families do too.

Are you and your team struggling to innovate and perform at higher levels while under intense pressure to get results? If so, you are likely experiencing high levels of chronic stress and maybe even burnout. The pressure to perform at work and home is getting stronger, not easing up. Stress, burnout and fatigue can cause business leaders and their teams to suffer. The damage shows up in the form of lost productivity, disengagement, and lower profits. And, there is also a high likelihood that you are irreparably damaging your health and eroding your most important relationships too. 

The Solution
