Check in to the group today to take Rebecca’s psychological safety assessment. While you are there, weigh in on the topics that are most relevant to you right now.
Please do not keep this group a secret! Share it! Invite other conscious leaders you know.
The purpose of this group is to elevate awareness of emerging and proven practices that will turn ripples of positive forward momentum into waves of much-needed transformation in the corporate landscape.
If you have a practice that you know is valuable, we WANT more people to know about it. This group is truly about collaborating, giving these practices, and the experts who are in a position to elevate corporate consciousness, a spotlight. Feel free to join the C3 group, help promote it, and let us know what topic for which you want to be a future panelist. The sooner you share it, the sooner things will get better for more people.
