Given the challenging times that we have all been through this year now more than ever, people need to be able to get out into nature and learn to reconnect with themselves. There is just something about being outside in nature that activates the soul and helps us feel more grounded and present. Maybe it is because we often pause and marvel at the great beauty that exists around us, and in that moment we slow down and become really present and grounded.

What is it you’re looking for to help you move forward or make progress? When you describe what you are looking for, you can use the feelings and expressions of resistance and cooperation to highlight or spotlight progress steps to control and see patterns.

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees.
