Personal Details

Bio

Do your people need trust to do the work they want to do? Trust is crucial, but too often we leave it up to chance. Emily can show you the way forward.

Emily Braucher's work is singularly focused helping people make meaningful and trusting connections across differences by teaching clients the tools to overcome challenges that inevitably get in the way.

For the last decade, she has worked with nonprofit, corporate and government clients on Brainstates Management, unconscious bias, and intercultural conflict styles, always pointing individuals and teams towards the best version of themselves. To do this, she calls upon cutting edge break throughs in neuroscience, years of training and consulting experience, 2 Masters degrees in topics related to culture and communication, and a decade facilitating cross-cultural collaborations in remote areas of Guatemala, Colombia, Tibet, India, Laos and Indonesia.

Weaving audiences through entertaining stories from experience in over 30 countries, Emily examines what happens to our brains when we are pushed out of our comfort zone- like when we collaborate across cultural differences, clash in conflict, drown in stress or attempt to incorporate different perspectives. She teaches several ways we can work with the circuitry of the brain to overcome obstacles created by discomfort and return to fostering trust.

BUILDING PSYCHOLOGICAL SAFETY AND TRUST

Profound uncertainty and constant changes foster an atmosphere of stress, anxiety and doubt in the workplace. When we combine this with remote working, the call to tackle anti-racism and pressure to address complex problems, team confidence and cohesion can shatter. This is a program that reunites remote teams and shows participants how foundational safety is central to meet the challenges of today. We look at what new habits are safe to try, so you can apply this instantly with the least effort and highest impact.

REFOCUS ON PRIORITIES
REIMAGINE COMMUNITY
RECLAIM OUR BEST SELVES
...through the power of connection

Trust is the gateway to connection, collaboration and innovation, yet we are living in a world of increasing suspicion, fear and disconnection. Even though we may feel we are more connected than ever through digital platforms, in our daily life we are being pulled away from each other and this has consequences, serious consequences for our well-being and our business. In this talk, Emily calls upon storytelling and brain science to challenge attendees to think differently about the link between community and their well-being.

MY WHITE PRIVILEGE AND THE GREY AREA: HOW I LEARNED TO HAVE DIFFICULT CONVERSATIONS ABOUT RACE

Part of changing racial inequity is getting accustomed to discomfort. The kind of discomfort that makes your skin crawl and palms sweat. The kind that can shut you down completely or make you launch into endless defenses. Yet the truth is, this level of discomfort is a hallmark of true transformation. In this program, Emily shares the very personal and vulnerable story of her resistance and fear of talking to students groups about her white privilege. She openly works through how to manage defensiveness and uncover hidden privileges so that we can continue to move the needle on equity. This is Emily's story of discomfort and what her journey with white privilege is teaching her.
Objectives:
• A call to action to lean into the discomfort of conversations about race
• To cultivate awareness of the emotions that accompany transformative conversations about privilege
• To provide some tips around getting out of defensive reactions
