Taming the Sabertooth

CREATE FUTURE-READY LEADERS

The world of work is more fast-paced, digitized and interdependent than ever before, and the addition of a pandemic has made any semblance of balance between home and work life a difficult challenge.


Resilience is increasingly needed in the workplace and in life. For professionals trying to do more with less, serve more demanding clients, and solve complex issues in a constantly changing environment, increased stress is becoming a part of working life. This new environment makes resilience a critical attribute, both for success and peak performance, and to avoid burnout. 


The program empowers leadership teams to cultivate new ways of working, enabling everyone in the organization to give their best, while creating a sense of shared purpose and camaraderie.  We explore the challenges faced in a dynamic and changing environment, along with a practical toolkit of actions and ways of thinking that are at our disposal to deal with those challenges.  


In the Taming the Sabertooth program, leaders discover that while they may not be able to control their environment, they do have the power to control their response to it.  Leaders engage in immersions to gain insights into how to navigate successfully through challenges, along with opportunities to reflect on and practice the skills they have learned. 


Leadership teams become a learning cohort that shares a sense of community, connection and purpose, both reciprocating support and holding each other accountable for putting what they have learned into practice. 

Fostering real change

Practice – honing mindfulness mastery for high performance long after the training itself is over.


Perspective – strategy and tactics working together to deliver a set of tools and skills for an optimistic mindset.


Momentum – keep the power of ideas learned moving forward through a cohort that speaks the same language.


Application – put leadership skills learned into action by engaging as a cohort to reflect and practice.


Motivation – stay in the zone of peak performance by reciprocating support and holding each other accountable for results.
