Why this? Why now?
We need skills that help us to act effectively during chaotic situations. In our tense environment, emotional intelligence often goes out the window, and even the best leaders shift into escalation or avoidance. Ignoring things can lead to simmering issues that may explode later, eroding trust and causing disengagement. We don’t just need emotional intelligence; we need skills that enable leaders to bring out the best in their people in the worst situations.
What is Artesian Collaborative’s approach to this issue?
Our trainings are grounded in therapeutic mental health practices, with a focus on interactive skill-building that supports real workplace application. Psychological flexibility and emotional attunement are essential for leading through tense situations—helping us recognize emotions, respond with care, and build authentic connections.
Participant Feedback
“You provided the space for our leadership team to connect, reflect, and take on additional resources as we continue to lead on this uncharted path. If we don't take care of ourselves we are not offering our full selves personally or professionally.”
“Thank you for joining us and for truly supporting us. We are lucky to have Artesian Collaborative as a member of our extended team.”
“Thank you for enabling our team to learn from you and build resilience in a way that is emotionally open. Our team felt very safe and, therefore, able to be vulnerable.”
Our Training Team
As trained mental health professionals, our passion is to help people navigate pain and turn it into growth. Many corporate training programs are great at helping us address the symptoms of tension and conflict, but rarely get to the root of why we feel and act the way that we do. At Artesian Collaborative we believe that tension, conflict and discomfort are not merely problems to be solved. They are opportunities that, when used correctly, can transform our organizations, our relationships and ourselves.
As we train your team our primary goals are to:
-
Help your organization build a culture that supports psychological and emotional health.
-
Guide your team through tension and conflict in a way that builds understanding of themselves and others.
-
Facilitate interactive and interpersonal workshops that help teams experience positive interactions in the moment that can serve as a model for healthy organizational culture.
