Joy, Burnout & Resilience
The Perspective Payoff
What if the problem isn’t really the problem?
Same pressure. Different perspective. More possibilities.
The Perspective Payoff is a keynote by Amanda Gore. It uses the metaphor of three pairs of glasses, one of the techniques she teaches, to help teams see pressure, change and conflict differently, and find more possibilities.
Two people can face the same deadline, the same difficult client and the same bad week, and walk away with completely different mindsets. The difference is the lens they look through.
Amanda Gore’s three glasses show people how the lens they’re wearing changes what they see, how they react and what they can do next.
You can’t always choose what you’re looking at.You can always choose how you look at it.
Black glasses:
fear, a fixed mindset and judgment.
Yellow glasses:
gratitude, optimism and gratefulness.
Gold glasses:
love, peace and joy.
It’s the fastest way she knows to help a room reframe pressure, change and conflict. And it’s funny enough that people are still talking about their glasses months later. There’s a lot of science behind it too: the impact of perspective on performance, behavior, beliefs and results.
What people walk away with
- A simple way to spot which glasses they’re wearing, in any moment
- Tools to reframe pressure, change and conflict in seconds
- More options when a problem feels stuck
- Better conversations, because they see the other person differently
- More compassion for, and understanding of, colleagues and clients
- A shared language the whole team keeps using long after the event
