Trauma Informed Coaching - Spanish

$95

with Emiliano Jimenez-Cornejo

Calendar Sep 23, 2024 at 9 am

What does it mean to be trauma-informed? Understanding the biology of traumatic and stressful life experiences helps us bring compassion and empathy to relate with others and ourselves more healthily. Let’s build together a trauma-informed and resiliency-focused workforce to improve relationships in the workplace and performance.

Como liderar un equipo teniendo en cuenta el stress y el trauma. 

Estres, Trauma, mi Lugar de Trabajo y Yo (CRM) 

A veces es fácil asumir que algo esta “mal” con mis compañeros de trabajo o con mis clientes cuando los veo tener una respuesta “exagerada” ante pequeños problemas. Pero asumir esto no es justo ni correcto, y afecta negativamente en las relaciones que construyo con ellos. Aun más importante, ¿que sucede si el “exagerado” soy yo, y creo no poder controlar mis propios sentimientos? ¿Hay algo mal conmigo? ¿Que puedo hacer para manejar esta situación mejor?

Entender la biología del trauma/estrés, y los cambios que toman lugar en mi propia fisiología luego de experimentar situaciones traumáticas o muy estresantes, puede ayudarme a ser más empático y compasivo hacia otros y mi mismo. En esta capacitación aprenderá lo que significa estar informado respecto al trauma, y enfocado en su propia resiliencia. También aprenderá las 6 técnicas del modelo CRM para promover la autorregulación y promover un mejor estado de bienestar.
