A 9-week professional development program

Navigating Emotions at Work

Welcome

Navigating Emotions at Work is our flagship program to support you to expand your emotional literacy and improve your experience of work.

Many of us are taught to ignore or downplay how we feel at work—that emotions are a distraction, only “positive” ones are appropriate, and that we must keep them under control. At the same time, we’re constantly grappling with the emotional landscape of our workplace, from trying to boost team morale to dealing with conflict and uncertainty.

Come practice new tools in dialogue with peers. As part of a small group, you'll have access to different perspectives and immediate feedback loops. This is the place to explore and practice different ways of showing up, so that you're equipped to face real-life work situations with more confidence and ease.

What it looks like

  • 5 live sessions on Zoom (90 min, every other Tuesday)

  • Small group of 6-10 peers

  • Blend of theory and practice

  • Weekly home practices for self-regulation and emotional processing

  • Invitation to join the NEAW alumni community for continued practice beyond the program

Why a group?

Exploring emotions requires interaction with other humans. You'll take part in a variety of activities, including roleplay, reflection and 1-1 practices, all designed for online engagement.

Each group brings together a mix of genders, ages and cultural backgrounds, as well as a range of professional experiences and interests.

Topics

  • Session 1: Emotions as data

  • Session 2: Effective requests and negotiating for what you need

  • Session 3: Expectations and trust

  • Session 4: Setting boundaries and saying no

  • Session 5: Confidence and professional identity

Wondering if this is for you?

This program is for those who care about the experience of work. Ask yourself if you’re in a place of wanting to invest in professional development, and know that personal change is a part of that growth. Timing and readiness is key.Past clients have joined out of a desire to:

  • Increase the coherence and energy level of their team

  • Better advocate for themselves through a career transition

  • Set better boundaries to avoid burnout

  • Establish themselves in a new team or role

  • Build trust in a remote-first workplace

  • Navigate hostile relationships

  • Build more meaningful relationships at work

  • Feel a greater sense of purpose and connection

No one is too "junior" or "senior" for this work. We look forward to welcoming you to the program.

Past participants say…

  • I’m most proud

    that I’ve moved on to “How do we create a better situation?”, instead of being stuck in the feelings of anger, resentment and “This is your fault”.

  • Time well-spent!

    This is a carefully-crafted space to safely explore how emotions shape our workplaces and individual experiences of them. Informative, playful, meaningful, engaging.

  • I gained a new way to react or rather, NOT react

    and to take a step back, assess the situation and then act in a way more deliberate way.

  • I enjoyed the way

    you took turns in leading the session, the calm pace, the mix between theory and exercises, the different people in the group and the interaction with the others.

  • A fantastic experience from start to finish.

    If you’re curious about emotional agility then Emotions at Work is worth exploring!

  • This helped me reduce some of the stigma

    that I have associated with the role emotions are supposed to play at work.

  • One of my highlights of this year

    Tomomi and Oriana are amazing, individually and as a team. They create a really supportive, open and explorative space.
