About this Event
Deliver Sessions is back! In May we'll be at Forward Role's office just off Deansgate, huge thanks to them for hosting and providing refreshments.
At this event, we'll have Hannah Dell'Armi presenting:
Why Good Teams Get Stuck: From Armour to Authenticity
Do you work with teams and find yourself wondering why people aren’t taking the initiative, why conflict keeps bubbling under the surface, or why even small changes feel hard?
Often, it’s not about capability or intent — it’s about what’s happening beneath the surface.
Based on the work of Michelle Brody, this session explores the judgements, behaviours and actions that can leave people feeling threatened — and the “armour” we put on in response. With real examples we will explore the threat/armour cycles that can show up and the unintended impact they can have on teams.
You’ll leave with a ideas you can use with your teams to surface what’s really going on and create the conditions for healthier, more authentic ways of working.
