It’s often said, “A house divided cannot stand.” Similarly, a team without psychological safety cannot thrive.

As an Agile Transformation coach who has worked with organizations of all sizes—corporations, non-profits, and everything in between—one of the most rewarding moments I’ve experienced is witnessing a team’s "AHA!" moment. It’s the instant when they "get it"—when they break through a cultural barrier, speak up, and build trust. In that moment, the team connects, their engagement skyrockets, and their ability to collaborate soars.

I’ve been fortunate enough to witness this with teams on public calls with Fortune 50 clients, and yes, there have been moments where I’ve cried as I watched transformation unfold. There’s nothing more powerful than seeing a team make the decision to change—and to do it together.

This session is about how you, as a leader, coach, or facilitator, can create these breakthrough moments in your teams. I’ll share practical strategies and insights on how to:

Establish psychological safety in even the most challenging teams.
* Break through cultural barriers that inhibit trust and open communication.
* Help your teams and clients embrace change—even when they didn’t know they needed it.
* Gain buy-in for transformation and ignite a passion for growth.

By the end of this session, you’ll leave with actionable tools to create moments of connection, trust, and growth in your own teams, no matter the challenges you face.

Target Audience: Agile coaches, Scrum Masters, team leads, change agents, and leaders who want to foster psychological safety and create high-performing, collaborative teams.
