Joy in Work Curiosity Collective: Understanding the 'Drama Triangle' to help improve joy in work

Explore a framework for understanding the roles and behaviours that keep us stuck.

About this session

Ready to break free from workplace drama? 

Join the Joy in Work Curiosity Collective to explore Steven Karpman’s Drama Triangle, a powerful framework for understanding the roles and behaviours that keep us stuck. You’ll uncover how these patterns might be showing up in your own team and learn how to shift to the Empowerment Triangle, a practical approach for creating healthier, more joyful ways of working.

Facilitators

The Joy in Work Curiosity Collective

Do you find implementing Joy in Work a challenge? Are you unsure where to start? Or, have you implemented Joy in Work for your team already and want to share your experiences? If so, the Joy in Work Curiosity Collective is for you!

Join Julia Wood and John Rouse for monthly virtual 45 minute discussions aimed at navigating the challenges of implementing and sustaining Joy in Work.

During each session we’ll leverage our collective brain power to tackle complex issues and questions surrounding Joy in Work. These discussions could make all the difference between implementing and sustaining a successful Joy in Work project and one which leaves you wondering where things went wrong.

In this session, you will guide the selection of topics which means that the content is tailored to your challenges and draws upon your experiences.

Join the Improving Joy in Work online group

The Joy in Work Curiosity Collective sessions are part of the Improving Joy in Work online group.

The purpose of this group is to provide a learning forum to bring together those interested in Joy in Work. 

Experts, complete novices, and everyone in between, is welcome to join this group so we can increase joy in our working environments.
