Join us for an interactive Skills for Business workshop led by Heather Bellin, Founder of Happy Leaders, and Jane Finch, Founder and Diversity & Inclusion Specialist at Time for Inclusion.
Ever said or done the wrong thing at work, hit send too soon, or made a decision that didn’t land well? Good news — that just means you’re human.
In this lively and liberating session, we’ll explore why mistakes aren’t disasters but data: valuable clues that help us become smarter, kinder, and more adaptable. Through real examples and open discussion, we’ll identify common challenges and barriers, unpack how to recover from missteps, and learn how to help our teams do the same.
You’ll leave with practical ways to reframe failure, challenge bias, and embrace the creative chaos that comes with being human. Come ready to fail brilliantly — and thrive because of it.
Spaces are limited and will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
