#055 – Taking Time to Refocus, Refuel and Recharge with Lindsay Lapaquette

Summer is here! After a long year, we’ve decided to take a good moment to slow down and create more space to refuel and recharge, so we can be back with renewed focus in the fall.

On my very first solo episode of The Workplace Communication Podcast, I talk about the impact of chronic stress on executive functioning, reflect on how we can intervene proactively and share some decisions we’ve made at Collaborative Solutions to do so.

Leadership tips you won’t want to miss:

🎙️ A model of the fundamental skills of leadership communication and why I’m going back to the basics

🎙️ The importance of building in ways to resolve the stress cycle regularly

🎙️ Reflections on predicted long-term impacts of the pandemic that organizations may want to keep an eye on

🎙️ A sneak peak into upcoming projects, our newest hire and an upcoming family adventure

Lindsay Lapaquette, M.Sc.(A) works with middle managers who want to communicate authentically so they can effectively lead their teams without losing themselves. As a former Speech-Language Pathologist, Lindsay applies her expertise in the neuroscience of communication and connection to help managers foster an environment of trust and respect in their teams, so that everyone can bring their best selves to work.

Lindsay’s approach has been profoundly influenced by her work with Indigenous organizations, her experience as a parent to two neurodivergent children, and the premature loss of both of her parents. These experiences have taught Lindsay great lessons about the power of excellent people skills that extend well beyond her professional expertise.
