Â
Leadership
Great leadership is not about control, it’s about influence, trust, and vision. This training helps leaders recognize where counterfeit emotions are creating toxic dynamics that suppress innovation, erode morale, and foster disengagement. Leaders will learn how to cultivate accountability without shame, inspire through service, and balance ambition with integrity.
Topics of training:Â
- Power vs. Control – True power inspires and uplifts, while control stifles growth and innovation.
- Kind vs. Nice – Leaders must be kind (honest, constructive) rather than merely nice (people-pleasing and avoiding conflict).
- Pain vs. Misery – Pain leads to growth; misery keeps teams stuck in unproductive struggles.
- Curiosity vs. Suspicion – The best leaders ask questions to understand, not to doubt or undermine.
- Abundance vs. Accumulation – An abundant leader shares knowledge and resources; an accumulation mindset hoards and limits.
- Guilt vs. Shame – Accountability is productive; shame is destructive. Learn how to foster responsibility without devaluing people.
- Excellence vs. Perfectionism – Strive for growth and improvement rather than the paralysis of perfectionism.
- Serving vs. Saving – True leaders serve their teams, and they don’t over-function or try to rescue others from responsibility.
- Ambition vs. Greed – Ambition builds; greed exploits. Learn the difference.
Teamwork
Teams thrive when authentic emotions drive them. This training helps teams replace toxic dynamics with trust, adaptability, and collective purpose. Learn how to balance high standards with flexibility, serve without over-functioning, and work through challenges with determination rather than stubbornness.
Topics of training:Â
- Hope vs. Expectation – Hope fosters resilience; rigid expectations create frustration.
- Awareness vs. Anxiety – Awareness keeps teams agile; anxiety paralyzes them.
- Determination vs. Stubbornness – Determination adjusts to challenges; stubbornness refuses to pivot.
- Humility vs. Worthlessness – True humility values contributions without self-deprecation.
- Serving vs. Saving – Great teammates support each other without enabling dysfunction.
- Curiosity vs. Suspicion - Create deeper relationships and greater success by getting curious about team members and ideas.
Culture
A company’s culture determines its ability to grow, innovate, and retain talent. This training helps organizations create a culture of belonging, safety, and excellence. Discover how to avoiding the traps of toxic loyalty, false security, and surface-level inclusion.
Topics of training:
- Freedom vs. Comfort – True freedom allows for growth; comfort can lead to stagnation.
- Excellence vs. Perfectionism – A culture of excellence innovates; perfectionism stifles progress.
- Security/Safety vs. False Sense of Security – Real safety fosters openness; false security leads to complacency.
- Surrender vs. Resignation – Surrender adapts to reality; resignation gives up.
- Belonging vs. Fitting In – Belonging embraces authenticity; fitting in demands conformity.
- Loyalty vs. Enmeshment – Healthy loyalty is earned and reciprocal; enmeshment sacrifices individual growth for blind allegiance.
- Advocacy vs. Anger – Advocacy drives meaningful change; anger burns bridges.
Communication
Most workplace conflicts and inefficiencies stem from poor communication. This training helps teams recognize where counterfeit emotions like deception, misplaced worry, or forced sympathy are damaging relationships and performance. By shifting to authentic communication, organizations build trust, collaboration, and efficiency.
 Topics of training:
- Kind vs. Nice – Honest, clear communication fosters growth; empty politeness leads to confusion.
- Hope vs. Expectation – Hope invites possibilities; rigid expectations create disappointment.
- Concern vs. Worry – Concern leads to solutions; worry paralyzes action.
- Discretion vs. Deception – Healthy discretion respects privacy; deception erodes trust.
- Empathy vs. Sympathy – Empathy connects and empowers; sympathy can be patronizing and disempowering.
- Advocacy vs. Anger - Be an advocate for you in the face of injustice.
Authentic Selling
Authentic selling is about connection and value, not manipulation. This training helps sales teams identify the counterfeit emotions that lead to pushy, inauthentic interactions. By cultivating curiosity, confidence, and genuine ambition, teams will learn how to create trust and long-term customer relationships.
 Topics of training:
- Curiosity vs. Suspicion – Curiosity fosters genuine interest; suspicion makes customers feel interrogated.
- Confidence vs. Hubris – Confidence reassures buyers; hubris turns them away.
- Accomplishment vs. Pride – Celebrate wins without arrogance, keeping the focus on the client’s success.
- Ambition vs. Greed – Authentic ambition drives value creation; greed sacrifices relationships for short-term gains.
- Determination vs. Stubbornness – Determination adjusts to challenges; stubbornness refuses to pivot.
