Radical Joy: A Workshop for Conscious Leaders and Their Teams
In order to experience a workplace rooted in the culture of joy, leaders must create an extraordinary environment where creativity, innovation, imagination, and invention are the new norms. However, most leaders were not taught how to do this, and because our unconscious mind dwells on sadness, frustration, fear, and anxiety, oftentimes leaders have lost their own joy. This results in underperforming teams and leaders who are in need of a new way of leading.

M. Shannon Hernandez helps progressive companies reduce turnover, increase talent retention, and build a strong, positive company culture. When leadership teams focus on transforming the workplace to a culture of joy, employees are healthier, take fewer sick days and experience higher engagement and productivity at work.

In the Radical Joy Workshop, participants will:

  • Tap into their unconscious mind and connect to the part of themselves that is most wise, so that they can navigate their struggles, overcome fear, and engage in creative decision making with deep inner peace
  • Clarify their values and reconnect to the higher purpose of their work, so that they lead from a place of expansive joy
  • Cultivate the emotional intelligence and interpersonal skills, so that they lead their team/organization consciously and sustainably
