What does it mean to be equipped for change? This goes beyond simply having the materials and supplies that we need, it involves being prepared mentally and emotionally. What will you do in the midst of change? How will you handle the process to create a life that is better? Listen in as Keisha A Rivers, President & Chief Outcome Facilitator of The KARS Group LTD provides a breakdown of what you need to do to be successful.

Navigating the process of change requires us to move beyond emotional reactions to thinking strategically about what needs to be done and the order in which we need to take action. In medical centers when there is an emergency, you first see someone in triage where they assess the situation and determine in what order action needs to be taken. We need to do the same in our own assessment of our circumstances and situations. In this episode Keisha A Rivers, President & Chief Outcome Facilitator of The KARS Group LTD provides a four step process of moving from triage to trust as you navigate change.

I was talking to several friends and colleagues of mine and all of them kept mentioning that they couldn't wait until things got back to "normal". In times of intense change, people always want to go "back" to the way things were--not because what was before was necessarily better, but because it was familiar. Human beings are creatures of habit. We naturally want to default to what's comfortable, expected and what we call "normal". But what if there was no going "back"? What if what you're walking into next is determined by what YOU create? What would you do if you could create your new normal? Join Keisha A Rivers, President & Chief Outcome Facilitator as she delves into how we process "normal" and ways in which we can seize the day and create our "new" normal based on what we want and desire.

The Boogeyman doesn't live here anymore! Our decision-making ability is rooted in our belief systems and the way in which we see the world and our place in it.

We all do it. Even if we don’t admit it—we all talk to ourselves.Most times there are all of these “under your breath” type of comments that we make, like “How could you forgotten THAT?” or “I hope no one else saw that”. But then there are the other comments that are a bit more critical and sometimes downright mean—“OMG how could I have been SO stupid?” or “I’m a complete idiot. WHY do I keep messing up?!”Join Keisha A Rivers, President & Chief Outcome Facilitator of The KARS Group LTD as she provides tips and insights on what it means when the voices in your head aren't saying what you want them to, and provides actionable steps to help you turn that internal conversation around.

For many of us, our lives are filled with goals and "to-do" lists of things that we want to accomplish and check off. But at the end of the day, what impact are you making? Once the lists have been completed and the goals have been achieved, what mark are you leaving on the world? Join Keisha A Rivers, President & Chief Outcome Facilitator of The KARS Group LTD for this Mic-Side Chat as she shares her journey and invites you to ask yourself "What impact are you making?".

When we talk about creating truly diverse and inclusive organizations, we focus on checking the boxes of race, gender, etc. But to create a truly inclusive and dynamic learning-focused organization, we have to identify and understand how our people learn. The way that we learn and interact with information shapes the way we apply it and influences our outcomes. Join Keisha A Rivers, President & Chief Outcome Facilitator of The KARS Group LTD as she outlines ways in which learning styles impact the success of organizations.

When we talk about Diversity & Inclusion, typically the conversation revolves around representation of different groups (i.e., race, gender, sexual orientation, etc.). But what happens when we expand our thinking about diversity to become more diverse? What if we include different considerations such as: diversity of thought, diversity of experience and diversity of learning style to the equation? How would our teams and workplaces change as a result? Join Keisha A Rivers, President & Chief Outcome Facilitator of The KARS Group LTD, as she explores what it means to truly be diverse about diversity and how this impacts your teams and ultimately the success of your organization.

When working with teams, it's important to recognize when your group is operating in a culture of "us" instead of thriving in a community of "we". As leaders, we all want to create opportunities for our organizations and teams to be successful. In order to do that, we have to understand the fundamental differences between what draws people together and what tears teams apart. Join Keisha A Rives, President and Chief Outcome Facilitator of The KARS Group LTD as she provides actionable solutions and best practices that you can use to change the dynamics of your team from "us" to building a community of collaboration based on the collective "we".

We've all been there--you're on a team and the manager/leader isn't exactly showing up in any meaningful way. There's no direction, little feedback and ineffective meetings. That leads to team ineffectiveness, low morale and worse case scenario--missed goals and talk of retraining and reorganization. Join Keisha A Rivers, Chief Outcome Facilitator of The KARS Group as she outlines how this shows up in real-world problems AND outlines best practices and real-world, ready to apply solutions to enable you to overcome the leadership fuzzies and enable you and your team to change your mindset and master your success!
