Leah Weiss, PHD Speaking Topics

  • Resilience, Mindfulness, and Compassion can Transform the Workplace

    Toxic cultures are the stuff of news headlines recently, but this kind of toxicity isn't new. In fact, the 'dog-eat-dog' culture is something that most workplaces prized until very recently. As these destructive cultures are exposed more and more, HR heads are looking for ways to turn work environments around • the end goal being a safe, productive, efficient, and mindful culture that both HR and employees can feel good about. The way to this 'milk and honey culture' is through mindfulness, compassion, and resilience training • and here's how to do it.

  • Soft Skills

    How to Get Them Back (Yes, You Once Had Them): You probably know that you need soft skills. Most MBA programs are now integrating soft skill courses • but did you know that these skills are innate in children? You can get these skills back through these actionable steps that begin with leadership and end with every employee.

  • Compassion is for the C-Suite (how compassion has and can start at the leadership level)

    Employees follow cues from executives • if your c-suite isn't thinking about a compassionate company culture, it could cost you dollars in the long run.

  • The Profits of Purpose (how creating a culture of purpose can increase profits, etc)

    Purpose isn't just a nice concept • it's a tangible thing steeped in statistics. Employees that feel a lack of purpose don't stick around -• and if they do, they cost companies lots of money. Here are the facts on the importance of purpose.
