Chefalo Consulting’s Group Norms
Confidentiality
Class is a safe, judgment-free space where we assume the best in one another. Confidentiality allows us to be honest and vulnerable.
Commit to
Non-Closure
Our conversations won't always have fairy-tale endings or neatly packaged answers. This work can be messy.
Our lived experiences, emotions, and beliefs are real, valid, and meant to be shared with others.
Seek Intentional Learning
We embrace mistakes since they are the hallmark of learning. Our goal during class is intentional growth and learning, never perfection.
In this class, we have hard conversations. We also learn how to ask for help and receive support from one another.
Embrace Paradox
Two things can be true at the same time. We resist black-and-white thinking that halts growth.
Selecting a Core Team
Participants who complete the Train the Trainer Program will comprise an organization’s Core Team. Individuals on a Core Team lead implementation efforts and serve as continued training support. They are powerful catalysts to trauma-informed change.
