Work It!
Is the grind getting you down? Ready to stop thinking about work 24-7? You’ve come to the right place!
Our Professionals Roundtable is a supportive and solution-focused group for people who just can’t get rid of that persistent work dread feeling. Together, we help you regain your spark and stop getting bogged down or distracted. But most importantly, we help you understand the psychological underpinnings of the systems and personalities that hold you back. So that you can finally corral the stress of the workplace and get back to loving life again!
Wondering why you Feel this Way?
Is it you, or is it the workplace? Want to join us to find out?
Many factors coalesce in the modern workplace that just don’t, well, work. In fact, worse, they can drive you downright crazy.
YES, sexism, nepotism, racism, cronyism exist. Believe us, they are all too real. But, you don’t have to let negativity from all the *isms dominate your life.
You Don’t Have to Suffer Alone
Together, we will learn how to navigate the perils of the work environment. Whether it be a position at a non-profit, in a startup, perhaps even an establishment of corporate America – we get it.
We have members from diverse arenas such as the federal government, academia, the world of law, consulting, NGOs and medicine. It can feel good to hear other stories from arenas different from your own, but to also see common threads and themes you can bond over. Wherever you are coming from, we can help you turn distress, confusion and rage into relief, clarity and passion.
Join us.
FAQs
What ages can join?
The group is targeted toward professionals navigating workplace politics, office obstacles, and career decisions.
Is there any commitment?
Nope, come one time or many. Most people find the group a beneficial resource they can look forward to when work becomes overwhelming.
Do we just vent?
We certainly share our experiences! However, that is not all we do. Each session has a concrete topic for discussion, valuable tips to improve the workplace, and concrete action steps. You also get fascinating advice and perspective from experts in the field on your unique situation.
Is it just once a month?
The live meetings, yes. But we have Forums for discussion that are live 24/7 and some people even chat or meet outside of the group. So, you can seek support when an issue comes up from a group invested in your success.
Is it private?
Yes, only members can join! Members are encouraged to keep discussion topics confidential. However, keep in mind that we can’t control the confidentiality of other group members. That said, it’s a pretty considerate group who needs you as much as you need them.
Is it therapy?
No, it’s not therapy. Think of it more like way to connect with a group of supportive individuals wanting to learn how to better their workplace experience. And, you also get a chance to receive support from others in the same boat; and maybe even provide them a little comfort too.
