Shifting Beyond “Neutral” Leadership During This Politically Divisive Era
Join Anima Leadership co-founder Shakil Choudhury (https://annahiddashtgard.com/about/) in a immersive discussion on breaking down polarization in the workplace.
Conflict by its very nature emotionally divides, forcing us to “choose” sides…but then who looks after the Whole? Yet being “neutral” is not the answer as this only maintains the unjust status quo when we seek to fix systems that carry the stains of racism and sexism. In this free online Anima Cafe, we explore developing polarity management skills to move beyond either/or thinking. Anima co-founder, Shakil Choudhury, explores what it means to be a “de-polarized” leader, essential for the workplace which continues to be influenced by the political divisiveness from broader society.

The Need and Limits of Psychological Safety in the Workplace
Tools for Compassion & Justice Leadership Series
While the psychological safety of employees is essential, a workplace is not a therapeutic space…and learning to hold the tension between personal-professional is a key leadership capacity.
This free podcast will explore the reasons why psychological safety is a critical factor for both well-being as well as performance, and strategies for leaders to nurture it on their teams. We also discuss its very real limits, as many leaders—especially in the not-for-profit context— inadvertently get their teams “stuck” in emotional quagmires because of an inability to draw healthy professional boundaries.
Shakil Choudhury, will explore this critical but deeply misunderstood topic. This the first podcast in a fall Anima series entitled Tools for Compassion & Justice Leadership.

The Art of Framing Difficult Topics: Telling the Story before it Tells You
with Annahid Dashtgard
Another way of thinking about the leader role is one who tells the best, most engaging, most believable, story. If we don’t tell it, others will, and usually it’s the most negative version.
This cafe with Anima CEO Annahid Dashtgard, offers a framework for framing our messages so they get heard and get buy in, especially important in fostering trust in today’s diverse and increasingly polarized environments.
