JPro Professional Development Workshop

Our intention is to discuss what it means to build a trauma informed workplace, then dive deeper into what this means in the exact moment in time for those of us who are facing the challenges of working through this conflict in Israel and the implications that it has on our workplace culture. This workshop will focus on creating an intention that our workplace will be somewhere that employees can thrive

Agenda:

  • Brief introduction
  • Icebreaker questions by table
  • Data slides: what is trauma, what does it mean to be trauma informed
  • Information about the Caring for the Caregiver research done by Ray Engel and Danny Rosen
  • Key Aspects of a Trauma Informed Workplace
  • Discussion about the Current Climate
  • Resources to use in the future
