About this Course
We ALL experience drama—it is part of the human experience. If we can learn to see when we are engaged in daily drama, pause, and ask ourselves and others the 3 Vital Questions of this course, you will be well on your way to transforming your relationships.
Workplace drama is often present when we don’t realize it. In fact, dissatisfaction at work can often derive from dynamics at work that undermine all the positive culture and projects we engage in at work. This course simply describes our base line operating systems and how we can inadvertently be focused on problems when in fact we are better off focusing on outcomes. Join an interactive day-long experience to build a new muscle resulting in more satisfaction at work, higher producing teams and more streamlined paths to meeting your desired outcomes.
“3VQ has equipped me with a framework and vocabulary that help me approach challenging situations with hope and inspiration. While I don’t always handle these moments with perfect grace and dignity, looking back, I see significant growth and learning. Each experience, whether smoothly managed or not, contributes to my journey, helping me honor who I am and my aspirations in the world.”
