Instructor

Val Kinjerski, MSW, PhD, RSW is a leader and expert on the topic of Spirit at Work. Her passion for spirit at work builds on a long standing concern about stress and burnout in social work. Prior to making spirit at work her life’s work, Val worked in social service for 18 years in positions ranging from front-line to senior management so she appreciates the many challenges faced in social work today. 

Val’s research is published in management, leadership, health care, and career journals and presented at national and international conferences. Having developed the first scientific process to actually measure spirit at work, Val has shown that applying these strategies not only increases spirit at work, but job satisfaction, commitment, teamwork and morale. And absenteeism and turnover go down.

Today, Dr. Kinjerski applies this knowledge to assist individuals and organizations in tapping into this great resource of inner spirit to revitalize and recharge the workplace. She is the author of Rethinking Your Work: Getting to the Heart of What Matters and Rethinking Your Work Guidebook: How to Get to the Heart of What Matters.
