When ‘Keep Calm and Carry On’ Isn’t Working:

Emotional Regulation and Self-Coaching Training for Companies

A few years ago, I worked for a large higher education company. The company was fantastic, and most of the people were great, but I started noticing patterns. My students were dealing with life issues just as much as learning ones.

The trainers? A mixed bag—some were humble, thriving with their students, while others had egos so large you’d think their students were lucky just to be in their presence.

Then there was management. Some were supportive and got what leadership was about; others had no real management experience and tried to micromanage every move.

Team meetings were particularly “fun.” You had people who loved hearing themselves talk—even when they had nothing of value to add—and others who had brilliant ideas but stayed silent to avoid confrontation. Meanwhile, the team leader was just trying to survive the meeting, completely unaware of the dynamics playing out around them.

After having been a successful trainer in many fields, I decided to start applying the self coaching frameworks now covered in my book “BE”. First, with my students, then with fellow trainers, and before long, I was invited to share it with management. Everything was moving in the right direction—until COVID hit. All of this was happening while still training my students.

When Covid hit, instead of throwing in the towel, I dove deeper into research, expanded on my frameworks, and ended up writing four books on emotional regulation and self-coaching. The main book, “Be” covers the four main ‘States” that we need to understand to interact, emotionally regulate, situationally adapt and also self-coach to a more effective future. This is what I train now. No tests, no labels and NO powerpoints! (Maybe an interactive whiteboard though! )

The Problem

Today’s workplace has become more challenging than ever. Employees are battling stress, burnout, and constant Zoom fatigue. It’s no longer just about meeting deadlines; it’s about managing hybrid teams, staying engaged in remote settings, and coping with relentless change. Many employees are overwhelmed, emotionally drained, and feeling disconnected and disengaged.

Communication is breaking down, productivity is dropping, and morale is on the decline. Even leaders, despite their best efforts, are struggling with burnout and decision fatigue. The emotional toll is real, and it’s impacting every business to some degree.

The Solution

The “BE” method offers a fresh, no-nonsense approach to emotional regulation and self-coaching. Unlike conventional training programs that rely on generic solutions, our method focuses on practical, real-world tools that your team can start using immediately. No tests, no labels—just simple, effective strategies for transforming how your team handles stress, communication, and collaboration.

How Leadership and Management Training Helps

Leaders set the emotional tone for their teams. If they’re not equipped to handle stress and emotions effectively, neither will their teams. Our leadership training focuses on helping your management:

• Regulate their own emotions: A calm leader makes for a calm team.
• Communicate clearly under pressure: We teach emotional regulation techniques that help leaders maintain clarity and composure when stress runs high.
• Foster emotional resilience in others: Leaders will learn how to support their teams through stress, reduce burnout, and improve emotional intelligence.

The Result?

Stronger leaders, higher morale, and a workforce that’s emotionally equipped to handle anything.

• Half-Day and Full-Day Training: In-person for all levels and departments. Virtual sessions are also available, however are discouraged.

Key Benefits

My goal with corporate training is to help individuals in businesses of all sizes:

• Manage stress more effectively.
