The Train-the-Trainer
Certification is HERE!
We're living in a time where we can no longer show up to LEAD without doing our own work, where change requires us to dig deeper and BE different to LEAD different. Leaders are striving to be more effective and impactful - and are struggling. Emotions and conditioning get in the way. Lack of vulnerability, compassion, and fear get in the way. To sustain in this work requires Emotionally Intelligent Equity & Inclusion™. This work requires courageous leadership development.
COURAGE. IS. THE. CURE.
If you are a new - or established - leader in a school or organization,
if you are designated DEIB professional,
if you are a facilitator or coach growing into the DEIB space,
then this certification is for YOU.
After more than 30 years of facilitation and leadership experience, it is more than evident to me that there is an “order of operations” designed to support the transformational journey and leadership know-how that results in more inclusive practice. Our schools, organizations, and communities deserve to be more effective in terms of equity and belonging.
The Courage is the Cure™ certification program is rooted in my signature approach of emotionally intelligent equity and inclusion leadership development. I use my own framework, as well as components of privatized curriculum from best in class leaders and organizations. The certification has a balanced interplay of racial healing work for SELf-transformation along with courageous leadership competencies for systemic-transformation.
Heal
Transform
Lead
Courage is the Cure™ provides a systems-level approach integrating three key areas to BE an inclusive leader:
Racial Healing Work -
both experiential exploration and facilitation support
Transformational professional learning toward embodiment of courageous leadership
Emotionally-intelligent equity and inclusion facilitation & communication competencies for effective DEIB work
