Emotionally Attuned Management Coaching

Skills Building

Communication, monitoring work, and attuning to employee’s needs and feelings are all learnable skills. We tend to incorrectly assume we’re experts at them simply because we interact with people every day. But these skills take dedicated attention to acquire.

1:1 Coaching

1:1 coaching is supported by the scientific research literature as being the very best way to achieve lasting behavior change.

Habit Change

We tread on well-worn paths because they’re what we know. “Neurons that fire together, wire together,” the saying goes. So it takes dedicated work to form new habits and pathways.

Emotional Attunement

This is the ability to accurately perceive, understand, and respond to the emotions of others. It involves being sensitive and responsive to the emotional cues and signals that others express, both verbally and non-verbally. Emotional attunement is a fundamental aspect of effective communication and building healthy relationships.


In-depth Evaluation

Community Assessments

We can help measure and report how trauma-informed your community, coalition, or organization are using established assessment tools.

Program Evaluations

The purpose of a program evaluation is to systematically assess and analyze the design, implementation, and outcomes of a program or intervention. Program evaluations are conducted to gather evidence about the effectiveness, efficiency, relevance, and sustainability of a program.

Data Analysis

The purpose of public health data analysis is to extract meaningful insights from large datasets, informing evidence-based decision-making, identifying health trends, and guiding the development and evaluation of effective interventions to improve population health.

Evidence-Based Decision Making

We believe that all programs and decisions should be data-driven. Literature reviews of established, peer-reviewed literature inform our recommendations for programs and policies.
