The Gibson Method™
The Gibson Method: Human Centered Frameworks for Professional Wellness™ is a series of practical frameworks used by organizations and institutions with a real desire to:
1. disrupt the burnout cycle
2. cultivate a truly healthy workplace culture
3. build stamina for equitable change
the emphasis on practical frameworks…
We are saturated with wellness and leadership content. The best content is the experience of the people in the room. Let’s apply clear language to common experiences to help recognize we are the solution.
-Organizations have business plans, succession plans, emergency plans, and strategic plans. Let’s work together to use The Gibson Method™ to help create a trusted professional wellness plan.
HOw I arrived…
As an educator who trained teams to implement equity policy and make curricula more honest and accurate, I experienced burnout after mounting resistance to accurate teaching.
After personally experiencing burnout and watching dozens of people in many fields experience varying types of burnout, I studied burnout and then designed specific and practical methods to help move beyond burnout.
What I learned…
-Burnout is NOT just work related. Our personal and private realities shape our professional reality.When we improve one area of wellness others also improve.
-People are the source of solutions, not just problems to be managed.
-One of the most accessible antidotes to burnout is building the courage to slow down.
-Implementing equity is more successful when paired with wellness initiatives.
