Program feedback

TAMING THE SABERTOOTH

Taming the Sabertooth is made up of eight interactive workshops. Each workshop sets the foundation for building resilience, optimizing performance, and creating a culture of inclusion and open communication at work. We explore the challenges faced in a dynamic and changing environment, along with a toolkit of actions and ways of thinking that are at our disposal to deal with those challenges. 
​

​Participants engage in immersions to learn new skills, along with opportunities to reflect on and practice the skills they have learned. They become a learning cohort that shares a sense of community, connection and purpose, both reciprocating support and holding each other accountable for putting what they have learned into practice. 

The program consists of eight facilitator-led workshops:​​
