Transformation after Trauma: The Power of Resonance

This session expands on the idea of Transformation After Trauma through the concept of Resonance. Resonance is defined as a moment of awakening, through personal stories, that creates an opportunity for transformative learning. Resonance is presented as the key to posttraumatic growth and transformation and the presenter provides practical guidance for accessing it, in these times of trauma we are navigating through. This work is based on the speaker's newly published book of the same title.*

In this session, you can expect to learn:

1. How trauma impacts our organizational lives
2. The role of Resonance in supporting transformation outcomes after trauma
3. Strategies for facilitating for transformation
4. Practical application ideas for using Resonance in their practice, using specific case  examples
