ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE & CHANGE
Leadership potential exists at all levels of an organization. It is within every person who desires to make a difference. These are essential assets organizations need to recognize, nourish and leverage. Historically, change has been met with resistance, but it has also become evident that change is inevitable. So, seizing these opportunities as launching points for growth and innovation is key for organizations in distinguishing themselves and developing their people. Through consultations, coaching and co-creation with Sajel, these assets are identified, developed and embedded within the organizational culture and systems, resulting in sustainable success for individual, teams, organizations and their stakeholders.

“My journey has helped me better roll with the stresses of my days, added a greater sense of meaning to the work I do, built social capital between my staff and I, and provided me with dozens of tips and frameworks that I can share with my patients…I experience more moments of joy now than I can ever recall having, because I’m more present in the moment, rather than jumping cognitively into the past or the future. I experience greater meaning in my work because I’ve come to see it through lenses of kindness, sharing, family, connection, and community. No matter what you do for work, or what you’re studying in school, this course will be transformative. Whether you have a background in the field, or are studying it for the first time, this is a fantastic investment in your well-being, and the well-being of those around you. You won’t regret it!”
~ Jesse Wheeler, Family Physician
