3X 'Top 25 Customer Success Influencer in the World'

Nils has helped create internal transformation for hundreds of companies from early-stage startups to Fortune 100.  But he wasn’t always the secret sauce that companies hire to experience massive growth.  For the first 10 years of his professional career, he bounced from job to job not knowing where he fit.  After being frustrated, Nils invested in himself by getting an MBA in Management and Organizational Behavior

In 2012, Nils became a certified leadership coach and began working with clients to put his newly found wisdom to the test.

The results were astounding.

Every team Nils led witnessed a drastic change and he earned a reputation for extracting the born leaders in every organization.  He’s on a mission to reveal the tremendously untapped leadership in companies and create a ripple effect of transformational change.  Because behind every successful company is a team of powerful passionate leaders.

Conversations are a part of nearly everything we do, yet most of us don’t think about the impact this daily activity has on our and others’ ability to thrive at work, at home, or in any social setting.

In Conversations Worth Having, Second Edition: Using Appreciative Inquiry to Fuel Productive and Meaningful Engagement, Jackie Stavros and Cheri Torres use real-life examples to show how Appreciative Inquiry (identifying what’s working and building on it, rather than just trying to fix what’s broken) and asking generative questions (those based in curiosity, fostering inclusivity) vastly improves any conversation. 

The revised edition of Conversations Worth Having contains a wealth of new material, including new examples, updates on the latest supporting research in neuroscience and positive psychology, a discussion guide, and a new chapter on “tuning in,” a process to cultivate awareness of factors that influence our interactions, plus a three-step technique to prime ourselves for conversations worth having.

Book Stavros and Torres to learn how anyone and everyone can learn the practices detailed in their book to spur conversations that strengthen relationships, build effective teams, and generate healthy environments in which everyone thrives. Click here for more about the book.

Alfonso drives Team Dynamics’ client engagement; working side-by-side with C-Suite executives and internal champions of cultural change efforts.

Alfonso Wenker is a seasoned executive leader and facilitator of transformational organizational culture and strategy campaigns. Serving in major leadership roles within the field of philanthropy, Alfonso has been responsible for driving sector and systems wide change to diversify both perspective and personnel in order to better steward resources responsible for underwriting major movements. 

A Latinx, gay, cis-gender man, Alfonso was born and raised on the west side of Saint Paul, MN, to a Mexican mother and white father. Consequently, Alfonso has often been the ‘first’ or ‘only’ person on a team who is a Person of Color, gay person, or both throughout his career. He has experienced, first hand, how the attempted diversification in the U.S. workplace has both made strides and done accidental harm. 

Prior to co-founding Team Dynamics, Alfonso served as the Vice President for the Minnesota Council on Foundations, which collectively supported member organizations overseeing more than $20 billion in resources. Alfonso also co-chaired the National Creating Change Conference, the largest annual gathering of LGBTQ+ organizers in the country. In 2012, Alfonso took a leave of absence from philanthropy in order to play the role of Deputy Finance Director for the historic Minnesotans United for All Families Campaign. 

Trina Olson is a two-time executive director with a track record of building and retaining teams across race, gender, and sexual orientation to achieve shared goals. Trina has built an impressive portfolio of national and regional policy and advocacy experience, centering a multitude of progressive issues, including: healthcare, hunger, living wage, immigration reform, transgender inclusive non-discrimination, and more. Trina is an expert adult-educator who has supported teams around the country to both improve their workplace culture and performance.

Trina is a Minnesotan who has also made her home in eighteen U.S. cities, including: Seattle, Washington, D.C., San Francisco, New York, and Los Angeles. A queer, white, cis-gender woman, Trina is motivated by the ways job creators could be addressing the intersection of identity and workplace more creatively and consistently to address the pervasive inequities still at play across race and gender, in particular.

Trina is the author of Fairness in Philanthropy, Leveling the Playing Field for Our LGBTQ Neighbors, as well as, Seeking Safe Haven: LGBTQ People and the American Immigration Experience. Together, Trina and Alfonso have co-written a soon to be released book entitled: Hiring Revolution: A Step-by-Step Guide to Disrupt Racism and Sexism in the Workplace.
