Managing Power Dynamics and Power Balancing In the Workplace
Overview:
The workplace is full of power dynamics. How people use or maybe misuse their sources of power are the (not so) hidden forces that influence working relationships, workplace culture and organizational performance. We will explore ways to empower and balance power as well as provide tools and language to use so that power can be leveraged and balanced in meaningful and respectful ways.
