Work-Life Balance
Possibly the most common question I come across: How to get the balance right?
When I speak on this matter, I focus on how to:
Increase the overall quality of life.
Considering the best way to find harmony between responsibilities and life.
Looking for the best way to optimise those key areas of life, which always changes depending on individual circumstances.
Workplace (Personal) Relationships
Every relationship is personal on some level - including those at work. As we spend so much time at work, it is important to try establish (and maintain) those relationships. I generally focus on the following topics when I speak on this theme:
Leadership styles.
Conflict and communication at work.
Overall workplace and team dynamics.
Sexuality & GSRD
Many organisations are realising the benefits of an inclusive workplace. Gender, Sex and Relationships Diversity (GSRD), along with a great general awareness on sexuality, are two topics that I often get asked to speak about. When I do, I focus on:
Increasing understanding on sexuality generally.
What steps an organisation can take to foster a GSRD inclusive environment.
Intersectionality & Culture
With a world that is evermore connected and intertwined, comes an interaction between cultures and identities. The impact this can have on both an individual and a team make this a common topic organisations request me to discuss. When that’s the case, I include:
How to navigate cultural differences in the office.
What intersectionality is and how it impacts people.
The power of perspective (especially when it comes to multiple forms of inequality combining).
Every individual is different = every team is different = every talk is tailored to the company’s needs.
Thorbjorg Helga “Tobba” - CEO Kara Connect
“I thought every workplace should be required to deliver this talk for their teams and ensure that there is room for questions and answers.
I was thoroughly happy with the workshop. I learned a lot of new things to share to my team and in fact shared a lot from the talk. I really think many people are not aware of how bad the situation is and how many people still struggle with their identity”
