February Resource of the Month
Leadership doesn’t happen by accident.
This month, we’re highlighting The 2026 Leadership Development Webinar Series by VITAL WorkLife, a practical, year-long webinar series that helps leaders build confidence, lead with integrity, and support team wellbeing.
Leading with Confidence: Bridging the Gap Between Performance & Well-Being in 2026
In today’s fast-paced professional landscape, leadership is about more than just meeting quarterly targets—it’s about navigating the complex intersection of people, performance, and organizational well-being. Whether in a high-stakes clinical setting or a high-growth corporate office, the pressure on leaders to maintain a thriving workforce while upholding rigorous performance standards has never been greater.
To help professionals meet these challenges, VITAL WorkLife has announced its 2026 Leadership Webinar Series: The Confidence Framework. This year-long developmental journey is designed for managers, HR professionals, and executives who are ready to move beyond "surviving the day" toward fostering true workforce flourishing.
The Confidence Framework: A Universal Roadmap
The series is hosted by VITAL WorkLife experts Sarah Prom, MA, LPC, ODCP, and Casey Johnson, MSW, LCSW. Their approach focuses on giving leaders the practical "scripts" and frameworks they need to handle the most complex aspects of their roles with clarity, courage, and integrity.
Here is a look at the four critical areas of focus for the year:
Leading with courage is a requirement in any dynamic environment. This session moves past the theory of communication and provides proven strategies for leading through sensitive issues while actually strengthening professional relationships and team performance.
One of the most stressful tasks for any leader is managing staff performance while mitigating risk. This session dives into the "Accountability Gap," teaching leaders how to identify when a formal EAP referral to support services is appropriate and how to approach employees with a balance of care, clarity, and organizational policy.
Whether you are an HR professional, a department head, or a peer supporter, consistency is the key to confidence. This session provides a language framework for approaching difficult workplace dialogues with a blend of compassion and authenticity, ensuring that the human side of work is always protected.
The transition from "teammate to supervisor" is one of the most difficult leaps in any industry. This session offers a roadmap for navigating this transition without losing trust, helping new leaders set clear boundaries, establish authority, and foster a culture of mutual respect.
Why This Matters for Every Industry
The 2026 workforce requires leaders who possess more than just technical expertise; they need high emotional intelligence and the ability to manage the well-being of their teams as a strategic asset. By providing these practical tools, VITAL WorkLife continues to serve as a premier partner for organizations that recognize that healthy leaders create healthy cultures.
