What Makes Jyoti Different
01: Emotional Intelligence
Empathy has long been ignored as a key leadership trait. However, empathy is the most powerful driver of trust among your workforce. Understanding the neuroscience of empathy and the positive effects of building deeper emotional intelligence is a topic that Jyoti has studied at length. Having both written about the topic, and seen first hand the impact of empathetic leadership, Jyoti speaks powerfully about the positive impact that empathetic leadership, at all levels, has in organizations, in communities, and in our world.
02: Creativity & Innovation
Creativity is an intrinsic human capacity that must be cultivated in order to reap its countless benefits. The ability to think about problems in alternative ways allows solutions to be found in new places. Jyoti teaches your workforce ways to tap into their innate creative intelligence and shows them how to apply that creativity to drive innovation in your organization.
03: Inclusion & Culture
Building an inclusive workforce culture is no longer optional in today’s world. Ensuring everyone in your workforce feels like they belong, no matter their identity or personality type, must be a priority for every impactful organization. This requires an honest assessment of our current reality and a critical examination of misaligned behaviors, structures and systems. Jyoti talks about the importance of doing this hard work and both the organizational and societal benefits that come from prioritizing inclusion, belonging and employee empowerment.
04: Learning & Performance
Learning from success and failure means that teams must honestly assess their performance and provide meaningful feedback to one another. Building your team’s capacity for interpersonal communication, integrating effective reflection into your program lifecycles, and developing holistic learning and development processes are the components of cultivating a learning and performance culture. Jyoti shares stories of building such systems for test engineers and pilots, weaving in her unique perspectives to help your audience understand how leading with a learners mindset results in better performance.
