We’re pleased to announce the next webinar in our Rypple Leadership Series with the Teleos Leadership Institute — a global consulting firm that works with some of the world’s largest, most innovative companies on leadership development, emotional intelligence, and executive coaching.

Two of Teleos’ scholar-practitioners, Suzanne Rotondo and Gretchen Schmelzer, will be joining us on Tuesday October 18 at 2 pm ET to share their insights about how to coach teams to achieve their goals.

In the first of a three-part series on coaching, Suzanne and Gretchen will discuss, “What Neuropsychology Tells Us About the Positive Impact of Coaching with Compassion.”

Join us to learn how to:
