Groups Enhancing Positive Workplace Climate

AC Groups for “Those who give”: Improving workplace climate from the inside out.

In institutions everywhere, there are adults known to be generous in extending support to others. Their contributions to a positive workplace climate are invaluable – yet typically go unacknowledged.

With major stresses of the last couple of years, such people are more sought out than ever, and AC Groups benefit them in two ways. One, they get support themselves as they continue to give, and two, the effectiveness of their giving is increased as they incorporate new relational and coping skills learned during the program. AC Groups then have positive ripple effects in their workplaces. Program graduates foster authentic connections and resilience in their daily interactions with others in their communities.

For organizations, the suggested cost for a group of 5-6 participants is $3600. When signing up for three or more groups, organizations receive a 15% or more discount ($3060)

Groups for Individuals Seeking to Build Authentic Connections

Adults seeking to maximize their own resilience and support networks can sign up for AC Groups directly.

After registering and a one-on-one consultation (free of charge), people are placed in virtual groups with others like them. Examples include people in the same professional role such as administrators and counselors in schools and women in consulting; people experiencing relationship difficulties such as divorce; and members of minority groups including LGBT+ individuals as well as those with ethnic minority backgrounds.

On completing the AC Groups, participants have well-established, caring networks of their own. Even years later, group members continue to support each other during times of need, and share, with love, celebration of positive life events.

For individuals our suggested donation is $100 per group session. We can offer a sliding fee scale on a case-by-case basis. We have never turned anyone away for lack of funds. 

One-on-one Consultations & Presentations

Community presentations include talks for parents, employees (e.g., school faculty/staff, Grand Rounds in hospitals), and leadership including school and hospital administrators, and members of their Boards and Trustees.
