Agenda

Most leaders experience a great deal of pressure and stress from the pursuit of success. This impacts their mind, body, relationships, and work negatively. During The Leader’s Journey, the leaders in your organization will gather the tools they need to lower stress, avoid the pitfalls of success, and perform at their best no matter the circumstance. It will help them gain mental clarity, increase productivity, communicate powerfully, and build better and deeper relationships. The Leader’s Journey is the story of how I went from being in bed with a back injury to leading a team cycling 14,000 from Alaska to Argentina… and the main lessons that I learned along the way.

Whether implicit or conscious, bias is the number one threat to humanity and any company's success. If your company's goal is to create cohesiveness within your organization, increase revenue, be innovative and/or elevate your reputation- the bias in your workforce and community is a roadblock. You know the problem. Permission:Granted is your answer.

Throughout this session, Risha allows attendees to authentically express their biases, while giving them easily applicable tools to get over them, however screwed up they may be. Although diversity can often be an uncomfortable topic, Risha’s approach helps attendees to easily understand the concept, without feeling bored or judged.

Risha Grant teaches Diversity & Inclusion through the lens of humanity using terms like BS or Bias Synapse as a way to explain our brain’s involvement in the processing and validation of bias.
