About this event
The Art + Neuroscience of Great Teaming: The Playbook + Practices
Is your team avoiding hard conversations in the name of "being nice"? Struggling with accountability? Can't challenge ideas without triggering defensiveness?
You'll walk away with The 6 Social Skills Playbook—in-the-moment practices you can use MONDAY in your next team meeting to handle challenge, conflict, and accountability without the drama.
This one-day workshop gives you 6 neuroscience-based social skills that transform teams from polite to productive—where challenge fuels innovation, not conflict.
I'm looking for 10-15 pioneering, curious participants to experience this framework before I scale it more broadly. Use codeVIP for FREE access (valued at $50).
What's Included:
- Full-day workshop (9am-3:15pm)
- The 6 Social Skills Playbook (with reflection exercises and 6-week implementation goals)
- Lunch provided (vegan/vegetarian options)
- 2 follow-up group coaching calls (to support your implementation)
You'll walk away with practical skills to:
- Transform conflict into curiosity (not defensiveness)
- Challenge ideas without threatening egos
- Hold accountability without blame
- Stay calm under pressure (using Heart Rate Variability training)
- Build teams where psychological safety AND physiological readiness coexist
Your facilitator: Mary Lou Tierney, MS, brings 30+ years of experience from elite tennis officiating, Fortune 100 transformation leadership (Amgen, Intuit, MITRE), and teaching leadership to PhD students at Northeastern University.
