Frequently Asked Questions
Why Thriving?
Thriving is a natural state of human functioning, and the basis of human potential, development, and performance. When we thrive, we have an abundance of energy to unleash toward positive business and social outcomes. A thriving work culture attracts, develops, and retains people at their best. Thriving is not only about return on investment; it redefines how we work, grow, and succeed.
Why should I enroll in this program?
You will be uniquely positioned to assist leaders in embracing thriving as a leadership asset rather than an afterthought—where leaders are more open, present, connected, and well, instead of reactive, disengaged, and burnt out. This is a pivotal role for you as a leader, facilitator, and coach.
In cultures of overwork and fear, the vitality of people gives way to illness and disease, enthusiasm is traded for disengagement, and effectiveness is eroded by burnout. The most precious human resource—our innate capacity to thrive—is seriously jeopardized, diminishing the power of people to live, work, innovate, collaborate, and lead.
Simply put, thriving is no longer optional. Our unique framework brings together 19 bio-psycho-social-spiritual factors of thriving into one tool, enables you to enhance thriving for yourself and those you lead.
Who teaches the program?
The program is taught primarily by Wisdom Works CEO and creator of the Be Well Lead Well Pulse® assessment Renee Moorefield. Renee is Master Certified Coach, Certified Health & Wellness Coach, and Certified Yoga Instructor (RYT-500), and her expertise spans leadership and lifestyle transformation, systems thinking, yoga and spirituality, the science of thriving & growth, and spiral dynamics.
Each program is also co-facilitated by Executive Coaches Jane Cocking or Dianne Culhane, with technical support from Kate McIver.
On the final day of each program, you'll hear from a panel of leaders and practitioners how they apply our framework with their clients, teams, and organizations.
What is Be Well Lead Well Pulse®?
Be Well Lead Well Pulse® is a pioneering assessment system that combines the latest research about human thriving, combined with three decades of experience developing leaders worldwide.
By completing the Coach for Thriving program, you will be licensed to administer Be Well Lead Well Pulse® with leaders you serve, strengthening their capacity to lead from a foundation of internal balance, resilience, and wellbeing, plus activate thriving wherever they lead.
Do I need to be a professional coach?
No, you do not need to be a professional coach. This program was crafted specifically for leaders within organizations, as well as coaches or development practitioners, to guide individuals in examining their thriving capacity. While the program provides a methodology for guiding the leaders exploration of thriving, the program augments the basic coaching skills you already use as a leader with your team or as a professional coach.
How will this program support me and those I lead?
Once you complete the program, you can bring to those you lead:
- Clear insights about how thriving elevates leadership effectiveness.
- Be Well Lead Well Pulse®, an online, holistic assessment of 133 questions allowing the leader to examine their state of thriving.
- An 11-page individualized feedback report mapping what enables or erodes the leader’s ability to thrive in 6 categories and 19 subcategories of wellbeing and transformation.
- A reliable method to provide a structured debrief of the leader’s feedback report.
- A 70-page Be Well Lead Well® Interpretation Manual offering guidance, action planning tools, and close to 100 macro- and micro-practices you can use to support the leader toward greater thriving and effectiveness.
True leadership transformation requires transformation from within. Using Be Well Lead Well Pulse® those you lead will experience a whole-person approach to leadership development. Plus, you will help grow a worldwide movement of leaders who lead with greater self-awareness and attunement to thriving rather than operating on autopilot, who return to an inner core of wellbeing whenever they get overstressed or off track, and who empower thriving within organizations and communities.
What results will I notice?
Depleted or disengaged leaders lack the energy, clear-headedness, emotional balance, and world-centric acumen to make the best decisions for organizations and societies. The Be Well Lead Well Pulse® assessment system opens new avenues between you and the leaders you serve for leading from a foundation of internal balance, resilience, and wellbeing.
When leaders apply their personalized insights from Be Well Lead Well Pulse®, they:
- Become more energized. The energy boost leaders experience when they tap into true wellbeing translates into better performance.
- Operate with greater clarity and calm presence. When a leader’s inner world is at ease, the ups and downs of the outer world are less likely to rattle them.
- Foster a thriving work culture. Thriving leaders set the tone for people to work together with generativity and trust, rather than reactivity and fear.
- Uplevel thriving in relationships and teams. Too much or too little stress erodes performance. Leaders who value thriving help people align their potential with an inspired purpose to create the extraordinary.
- Cultivate wisdom. Leaders who thrive are an invitation for everyone they touch to bring forward wiser decisions fueled by wellbeing.
