Dr. Nicole Lipkin?is an organizational psychologist, speaker and the author of?What Keeps Leaders Up At Night: Recognizing and Resolving Your Most Troubling Management Issues?and?Y in the Workplace: Managing the ‘Me First’ Generation. Nicole’s aim is to help?organizations , leaders and their teams develop?behaviors ?and practices that increase personal and organizational resilience and sustainability by integrating the science of human behavior with practical approaches to business and?leadership challenges .
Nicole is the CEO of Equilibria Leadership Consulting, an international business/organizational solutions company based in the US that provides leadership and management development, executive assessment and executive and emerging leader coaching. She also is the owner of Equilibria Psychological and Consultation Services, a mid-sized group psychology practice located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Nick Tasler?is an internationally acclaimed thought leader on the science of decisions and their impact on the growth of leaders, teams, and organizations. He is also a leadership columnist for the?Harvard Business Review?and the #1 best-selling author of?The Impulse Factor: An Innovative Approach to Better Decision Making?and?Domino: The Simplest Way to Inspire Change.?Nick’s work has been featured by?The New York Times, Fast Company, Bloomberg, Fox Business, NPR, BBC, NBC, CBS?and other leading media outlets all around the world.?

He’s worked with some of the world’s most respected organizations ranging from Microsoft, JP Morgan Chase, and Target to 3M, Accenture, the Wharton School, Yale University and more.?
Most organizations have a version of “joyful peak performance” somewhere in their mission statement. But how many are actually achieving it? Across the US, 65M people are experiencing some form of toxicity at work every day. Many of these employees resign themselves to the pitiful fate of spending each day dodging the bullies, accepting deep-seated job dissatisfaction, fighting back clinical depression, or worse, succumbing to it.
Shola Richards?is an advocate, a one-man counsel, and a humanitarian hardwired for positivity, who (ironically) speaks, coaches, consults, and authors books on the shadowy, often underground, and underestimated subject of workplace bullying, a pernicious reality that, when overlooked, corrodes trust, distorts communication, and ultimately usurps equity from the bottom line by using up a company’s most valuable resource: its people.
His approach is to open eyes to the staggering price we pay for normalized, toxic behavior, because we can’t address what we don’t see. His result is people equipped with tangible, doable solutions because we can’t accomplish what we can’t make actionable. His conviction is that everyone deserves a healthy work environment because the quality and meaning of our work suffers when we do.
