WHAT’S YOUR HIGHEST POSSIBLE VISION?


Your first step begins here


Transformational Leadership Training can change your life and organization when delivered by a certified professional Transformational Trainer. Lara can help reinvent and empower your personal leadership and ministry teams.

An opportunity to explore your organization’s current leadership challenges through a framework that will enhance your team’s mindset and dynamic through generous listening, clarifying vision/direction, improving attitude, responsibility, ownership and forgiveness.

It is generally a two-day, intensive experience designed to provide leaders with a shared language and new approach to difficult conversations as well as giving/receiving redemptive feedback. By reinventing and empowering your team’s personal and organizational leadership, your team will become a more efficient, supportive and collaborative workplace.

Your team leaders will discover the automatic assumptions that influence their decision-making power through real-time coaching, hands-on activities and compelling group discussion that move the team toward their highest possible vision to achieve optimal results.

TRAUMA-competent TRAINING

Go beyond trauma informed and become trauma competent. With a deep understanding of trauma and its effects on the brain, I can help your ministry or organization develop approaches that serve a wide variety of folks who have experienced Adverse Childhood Experiences and other forms of trauma.

TBRI TRAINING

TBRI® or Trust-Based Relational Intervention is an evidence-based, trauma-competent approach designed to meet the complex needs of those who have experienced toxic stress from relational trauma. TBRI® uses Empowering Principles to address physical needs, Connecting Principles for attachment needs, and Correcting Principles to disarm fear-based behaviors. As a certified TBRI® practitioner Lara can help both caregivers and professionals to see and meet the needs of those who are made vulnerable by their circumstances.
