The PAUSE Before the Storm: How to Show Up During Difficult Times at Work

Tense conversations. Unexpected moments. A complicated world. No matter the source, rough patches are inevitable in every leadership journey. How you respond defines your impact and shapes your trajectory.

The PAUSE Before the Storm is a practical approach to help you stay calm, confident, and grounded, even when emotions run high. In this Executive Class Circle you’ll gain tools to regulate your response, communicate intentionally, and navigate challenging situations with clarity and control.

Led by Shelly Spoeth, an ICF-accredited executive coach with nearly three decades of experience helping executives navigate complexity, this session introduces the PAUSE for Self Leadership™ framework, a five-step model designed to help you manage difficult moments more effectively. Together, we’ll walk through the steps and practice applying them so you’re ready when the next “storm” hits. 

The storm is inevitable. Your response is your choice.

This event is exclusive to Executive Class Members.
