Crafting wellness for the Modern Workplace
Unlock the potential of your team through a unique and engaging arts-based workshop that lies at the intersection of team building, mental health, and professional development.
What I Offer
As a former corporate executive and people leader, I know how important it is to cultivate feelings of wellness, trust, and engagement amongst your team. I offer customized workshops that teach the art of cross stitch while leading employees through a guided exercise that helps them center, reflect, and connect with their colleagues. Events can be virtual, or in your offices in the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond.
Why Cross Stitch?
Not only is cross stitch an incredibly easy craft to learn (if you can count and make an 'x' you're 90% of the way there), but it also has many mental and physical health benefits that can be experienced in just one sitting. This makes it a perfect medium for team building workshops that aim to make space for mindfulness so that your employees can thrive as individuals and as a team.
Build Team Bonds
Workshop participants will not only learn to cross stitch, they will also reflect on topics relevant to the team and discuss their perspectives with each other. Each team member will come away with a unique piece of stitched art that represents their reflection process, and a short-list of personal commitments inspired by the exercise. Displaying stitched pieces around the workplace provides a great opportunity for continued conversation after the event!
Promote Wellness and Engagement
In a high intensity work environment, time to quiet the mind and create can unlock productivity and improve outcomes. Not only will this workshop teach a lifelong skill with major mental wellness benefits, it will also provide employees the chance to reflect on their experiences at work, learn something about themselves and their teammates, and ready themselves to take on the challenges ahead.
Support Culture Goals
What are your greatest company culture challenges of today? What vision are you driving towards internally? Whether you're working on communication, change management, values alignment, or any other behavioral shift, my workshops can be tailored to your people and culture goals, and are designed to facilitate reflection that helps employees move in the direction of the organization's needs.
