As the Global Landscape unfolds a critical question arises: Does love need to be honoured and valued within the commercial world? This month, we’ll explore how Relationship Systems Coaching can create space for love in the workplace. Love isn’t just a soft sentiment; it’s a driving force for connection, trust, and innovation. Together, we’ll redefine how organisations can thrive by balancing masculine energy with relational depth. Key questions we’ll address: What does love mean in a professional setting? How can love thrive alongside masculinity? Can masculinity be expressed in a loving, intentional way? What does “masculine aggression through a lens of love” look like in leadership and team dynamics? Using the ORSC Meta Skills Wheel, this event will demonstrate and explore how this tools can be used in leading and coaching with intentionality and relational awareness. Keith and Dylan will guide us through an interactive session, helping participants learn to: Identify and integrate key meta-skills to balance power and love. Lead with relational intelligence while navigating masculine cultural shifts. Bring new awareness to how love can empower rather than hinder organisational success. This event isn’t just a discussion—it’s a space for practice, reflection, and transformation.
