Overview

Our two-hour workshop is for those who are either curious about Proactive Conversations and want to have a taste of what’s possible; or have an acute challenge in a team or company that can be addressed with a single aspect of our methodology.

Our workshop covers one module of content that provides both conceptual content, practical steps and specific tools.

Participants learn through a “Tell, Show, Do” model that blends instruction, demonstration and practice, all led by expert facilitators who answers questions and provides feedback in real time.

We not only provide you with the exact steps to take, we create a total shift in the way communication is viewed forever.

Once the two hour workshop is complete, participants have the option to continue on and take our full program.
