The Workshop: The Big Energy Blueprint™: Propel Your Leadership with Purpose and Power
In today’s aging services landscape, resilience, innovation, and empathy are more essential than ever—but they don’t come from working harder or doing more. They come from managing energy more effectively. In this high-impact, research-backed session, Erin King, best-selling author and researcher, guides executives through her Big Energy Blueprint™, revealing how to unlock personal energy as a strategic advantage in leadership, culture, and performance.
Using insights from her proprietary Energy Exam®, which tens of thousands of professionals have taken, Erin will help participants identify their Energy Type, recognize what's charging or draining their leadership battery, and implement small, sustainable shifts that fuel greater focus, confidence, and clarity.
Leaders will leave this session recharged, realigned, and ready to propel their performance—with more clarity, consistency, and conviction.
By the end of this session, participants will:
- Decode Their Energy Type
Understand the 5 Energy Types from Erin’s proprietary framework—and discover how each uniquely influences executive performance, decision-making, and interpersonal leadership dynamics. - Identify Hidden Drainers & Everyday Chargers
Use personalized reporting to uncover which activities, environments, and relationships drain energy—and which small shifts can lead to big changes in stamina, focus, and innovation. - Apply the Big Energy Blueprint™ to Leadership Challenges
Learn a step-by-step, research-based strategy to align personal energy with leadership responsibilities, team culture, and mission-driven outcomes across aging services. - Practice Real-Time Recharging Tools
Experience guided exercises and breakouts that equip leaders with practical tools they can use immediately to improve communication, connection, and clarity in their roles. - Commit to a Personalized Energy Strategy
Walk away with a tangible micro-plan to better manage their most renewable resource—their energy—so they can lead with more impact, empathy, and endurance.
