Do you wish you could build an organizational environment that looks like this?

  • People are working in their strengths, producing energized, highly productive workers who look forward to Monday morning
  • Workplace drama is minimized so that people focus on what is best for the customers and the organization
  • Interpersonal conflict is dealt with quickly and effectively, creating a calmer, fairer and more creative environment
  • Organizational values are explicitly stated and leaders hold themselves and their employees accountable to acting within the values
  • Every employee understands their contribution to the good of the company and to the wider world.

Brio Leadership helps you create an organizational climate
that is productive, efficient and fun!

At Brio Leadership, we believe that work is sacred and should be the expression of our highest selves in the world. We are passionate about building a twenty-first century workplace that embodies spiritual values such as:

  • Integrity
  • Compassion
  • Respect for the individual and respect for the whole
  • Courage
  • Emotional mastery
  • Forgiveness
  • Accountability
  • Sustainability
  • Service

Corporations and organizations can change the world by embedding these virtues into their work cultures! At the very least, these institutions can gain a reputation as great places to work.

This isn't touchy-feely, "hold hands and sing Kumbayah" stuff. The benefits of creating a values-based workplace are tangible, bottom-line results such as:

  • Higher employee productivity, engagement and creativity
  • Lower attrition
  • Lower absenteeism and lower health-related expenses
  • Better teamwork
  • Loyal customers who are delighted by your energized employees

Brio Leadership can help you achieve these outcomes. Through our consulting, training and executive coaching services, we can help you identify your core values, create highly productive work teams and develop leaders who can bring out the best in their people.

Brio Leadership’s core teachings center on building the Temple of Well-Being. This paradigm describes both a spiritually intelligent individual and a spiritually intelligent company or organization. The Temple of Well-Being is built on the foundation of explicitly stated organizational values. The temple's columns represent the physical, emotional and mental well-being of the organization, and the capstone is the spiritual intelligence of the company, as represented by its intent to make a positive difference in the world and to enable its workers to find meaning and purpose at work.

Greetings from Kristin

May 28, 2009

I listen to and read the news with great interest these days, scanning for items about positive values such as forgiveness and compassion. I’m delighted when I find something that shows the benefits of practicing these values. For example, Elizabeth Edwards, in her interviews with Oprah and Larry King this month, described the pain and heartbreak she endured after learning of her husband’s infidelity. Even so, she says she forgave him to reduce her emotional pain. Thank you, Elizabeth, for your courage and strength in practicing forgiveness and working to re-build trust in your marriage.

Another example is the quote I use in the beginning of the featured article this month. It is from the Prime Minister of Bhutan, a small country in the Himalayan mountains that is dwarfed by its two neighboring countries, India and China. This country is pursuing and attempting to measure happiness within its borders. Instead of the Gross National Product, Bhutan has identified 72 indicators that measure the Gross National Happiness index.

It’s heartening to read about countries and people that are making a difference and setting an example for the rest of us.
