Saving Face: How Leaders Preserve Dignity and Build Trust

Presenter: Maya Hu-Chan, I help leaders effectively lead diverse, multicultural & virtual teams to accelerate business performance.

Description

You’ve heard of Facebook. But have you heard of Face Bank? The term might be unfamiliar
to many, but the most effective leaders count on it to lead their organizations.
Face is the new social currency of our time. As with all currencies, it’s prudent to bank this
currency for when you need to invest it. Face represents one’s self-worth, identity, reputation,
status, pride, and dignity. “Saving face” is a universal concept that enables you to connect
with people, break down barriers, and build trust and long-term relationships.
For over 25 years, executive coach and author Maya Hu-Chan has witnessed the ways most
effective leaders galvanize and incentivize their teams to do their best work. For this webinar,
Maya will share with you the essential concepts of honoring, losing, and saving face so leaders
can build authentic relationships and create a culture of psychological safety for their teams
and organization.
