Educators come to teaching with dreams of changing the odds for disadvantaged children and inspiring a love for learning. Nurses come to work with aspirations of caring for and healing others. Lawyers find themselves in the courtroom because of their passion for justice and advocating for others. Unfortunately, research shows that about 52% of employees are unhappy at work. Disengagement and dissatisfaction among workers have reached unprecedented levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many professions that involve an emotional practice, and employees need support in strengthening their social and emotional skills to manage the stress that comes with their careers so they stay in the profession for the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Well-being\u201d takes the stage front and center, and how we can create fulfilling lives while also working to improve performance in life and workplace success.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kim unpacks the positive psychology science and research that pivots the crowd towards optimism. She asks, \u201cWould you press a button to increase your happiness levels by 40% and your productivity levels by 31% while also having 300% more creativity on a Monday morning? When people respond, \u201cYes!\u201d she explains how to achieve this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her inspiring stories and practical tips for well-being leave the audience feeling inspired and full of hope for creating their own happiness within their profession and their personal lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you reset your brain toward positive, you become more engaged, creative, motivated, energetic, resilient, and productive in life\u2014including your work life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":52272,"parent":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-39382","keynotes","type-keynotes","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/strobeleducation.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/keynotes\/39382","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/strobeleducation.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/keynotes"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/strobeleducation.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/keynotes"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/strobeleducation.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52272"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/strobeleducation.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39382"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
