If your to-do list keeps growing because “it’s just faster to do it myself,” this workshop is for you. Delegation isn’t just about getting things off your plate—it’s about building others up, focusing on the work only you can do, and staying sane in the process. You’ll learn the 7 T’s of Delegation—a clear, practical framework for identifying what to offload and why. From Tiny tasks like scheduling and logistics, to Time-Sensitive distractions, to the ones you're just Terrible At, this approach will help you delegate with strategy, not stress. You'll learn how to grow your team through Teachable tasks and avoid being the bottleneck on Time-Consuming projects that only need your eyes at the end.

You’ll also build two key FLOW skills that make delegation sustainable: how to Let It Go—quieting the perfectionism and control that keep you clinging to work—and how to Own Your Part when mistakes happen. Because they will. Instead of taking it all back or blaming your team, you’ll learn how to lead through those moments with clarity and trust. Walk away with a smarter approach to delegation, stronger team leverage, and more space to think strategically, lead proactively—and get home on time way more often.

Ever find yourself slipping into endless distractions and losing hours on what started as a quick task? You're not alone, but it is possible to get much better at avoiding the cycle of going down the rabbit hole.

This talk explores why our brains are hardwired for distraction and gives you concrete techniques to stay focused, including baby steps in setting digital boundaries (yes, that means putting your phone down for at least five minutes!). You’ll also learn how to refocus your mind by practicing discernment, intentional breathing, and letting go—a skill that helps you release the mental clutter that pulls you off track.

Through practical exercises and real-world examples, you’ll leave ready to regain control, master your focus, and take back valuable hours of your day.

For Tech Leaders, the fear of making mistakes can show up everywhere — from over-polishing a roadmap deck to rewriting your team’s code “just to be sure.” But leadership isn’t about getting it perfect — it’s about moving forward, learning fast, and helping others do the same. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to adopt a growth mindset: a practical framework that reframes mistakes as part of progress, not failure. We’ll explore how perfectionism sneaks into your leadership style — and what it’s quietly costing you.

You’ll also build two essential FLOW skills that help you lead through imperfection: how to Focus with Breath so you stay calm when fear kicks in, and how to Let It Go—releasing unrealistic expectations and the pressure to get everything right the first time. Through relatable leadership scenarios and peer-based practice, you’ll develop a more resilient mindset, sharper decision-making, and the confidence to lead with clarity — even when the outcome isn’t guaranteed (or perfect). You’ll walk away ready to apply these skills immediately in high-pressure moments, performance reviews, team decisions, and your day-to-day leadership rhythm.

As a Tech Leader, you’re expected to deliver, support your team, and respond to stakeholders — often all at once. But if everything is a yes, your priorities disappear. This interactive workshop gives you the practical skills to say “no” with clarity, confidence, and respect. You’ll learn how to use William Ury’s Positive No framework to assert boundaries without damaging relationships — whether you're pushing back on a teammate’s last-minute request, a product manager’s scope creep, or a VP’s unrealistic timeline.

You’ll also practice two key FLOW skills that make it easier to say no when the pressure’s on: how to Let It Go—releasing guilt, fear, or the urge to over-explain—and how to Focus with Breath to stay calm and grounded before high-stakes conversations. Through real-world scenarios and hands-on practice, you’ll walk away with language you can use immediately—and the confidence to say no in a way that protects your time, clarifies priorities, and actually helps your team succeed.

Leadership isn’t just about making the right calls — it’s about staying steady while everything around you moves fast. From managing tension in meetings, juggling shifting priorities, and fielding last-minute requests, to navigating unclear direction or supporting a stressed-out team, software leaders are constantly pulled in multiple directions. That’s where FLOW comes in: a practical, four-part skillset designed to help you handle pressure, stay grounded in uncertainty, and show up with clarity when it matters most.

You’ll learn how to Focus with Breath, Let It Go, Own Your Part, and Weave FLOW into Your Day through real-world leadership scenarios and peer-to-peer practice designed to reflect the complexity of actual moments you face. These aren't abstract ideas — they’re trainable skills you can use right away to lead with more clarity, presence, and effectiveness. If you’ve been running on adrenaline, reacting on autopilot, or just trying to hold it all together, this workshop will help you become a more nimble, flexible leader who gets the job done — with a whole lot less effort and a lot more ease.

Tired of feeling trapped by too many demands and fearful of hearing—or saying—“no”? This interactive workshop dives deep into the transformative power of “no”—both in confidently asserting boundaries and receiving rejection with resilience. You'll learn how to respectfully say “no” to protect your time, priorities, and integrity while maintaining strong relationships.

On the flip side, you’ll gain tools to handle “no” without spiraling—by actually learning to let go. Letting go is a skill, not a mindset, and in this workshop you’ll practice using it in the moments when pressure builds—when your calendar’s packed, the ask feels unreasonable, or the “no” hits harder than expected. Through real-world scenarios, small group exercises, and practicing letting go techniques, you’ll leave equipped with tools to say and receive “no” effectively.

Missed deadlines. Underperforming teammates. Stakeholders pushing too hard. If you're a technical leader, you're probably avoiding at least one conversation that matters. In this workshop, you’ll learn a simple, proven 4-step framework (inspired by Nonviolent Communication) to handle tough conversations with clarity, confidence, and zero drama. Think of it like debugging communication: identify what’s really going on, name it without blame, and make a request that moves things forward.

You’ll also learn two essential FLOW skills to handle what makes these talks hard in the first place—pre-conversation anxiety and post-conversation rumination—and how to own your part without sliding into blame. You’ll leave this workshop with tools to approach difficult conversations with steady confidence and get your point across without triggering confusion or conflict. It will feel less like a confrontation and more like a real conversation—one that actually brings clarity to the situation.
