 Book Study Groups

Turn the book into a shared learning journey.

 How it works:

  1. Order directly from Global IOC — each participant receives a signed copy of Detach from Drama® (hardcover or softcover).
  2. Form your group — team, mentoring circle, or leadership community.
  3. Connect with the author — Dr. Peggy Marshall joins your group for a 30-minute Q&A by phone or Zoom.

 Why it works:

  • Creates shared language and reflection across your group
  • Provides a memorable experience with signed copies
  • Gives leaders direct access to the author’s insights

 What Makes This Different

  • Practical + Personal: Tools that shift both inner reactions and team dynamics.
  • Rooted in Research: Neuroscience, psychology, and coaching integrated into the PAUSE Model.
  • Scalable: A shared language that teams can adopt quickly.
  • Sustainable: Not just awareness — real strategies for resilience and renewal.

Can sessions be tailored to our team’s challenges?

Yes. While the PAUSE Model is a core framework, each session adapts to the dynamics most relevant to your team — whether that’s conflict, communication breakdowns, burnout, or organizational change. The full program expands beyond awareness to give teams lasting strategies for resilience, renewal, and collaboration.

a

Do we need the full program to see results?

No. Many organizations begin with the recorded session or 90-minute masterclass and see immediate impact. However, the Two-Session Reset and Four-Session Journey go deeper — creating not just quick wins but also embedded habits, shared language, and long-term shifts in how teams respond to drama.

a

How quickly will participants notice a difference?

Immediately. Even a single introduction to the PAUSE Model sparks awareness leaders can use the same day. With continued practice through the extended programs, those quick shifts evolve into lasting resilience and stronger culture.

a

Is this only about reducing drama?

Not at all. Detach from Drama® begins with the individual — building the skills of emotional regulation so each participant can pause, reset, and respond with clarity instead of reactivity. That inner shift immediately creates relief: less stress, more focus, and stronger personal resilience.

When individuals regulate better, teams benefit too. Energy once spent on drama gets freed up for collaboration, healthier relationships, and renewed focus on what matters most. The ripple effect extends across the organization, creating cultures that feel steadier, more connected, and better equipped to sustain performance under pressure.
