what you’ll learn on this training
Heighten your awareness of language and use it skilfully for positive outcomes.
Part 1: Communication & the Brain
Learn how language works in the brain and make simple, powerful changes to how you communicate.
Part 2: Coaching & Mentoring
Part two takes core communication skills to the advanced level of a Coach and Mentor.
Part 3: Raise & Preserve
Tough moments when raising concerns are familiar to most of us. Conflict, misunderstanding, heightened emotion are real risks.
Part 4: Conflict Resolution
Navigating conflict is rarely simple and conflict can return without sustainable solutions.
WHY THIS TRAINING WORKS
Designed for life-long value.
This is no flash-in-the-pan training. It’s designed to stick and add value to all areas of your work and life.
Small group training,
no one gets lost
To maximise value, places are limited to twelve people only. That means you’ll not get lost in a big crowd and you’ll get your outcomes met.
Deep-dive training,
no broad-brush approach
For greater depth, this leadership training focuses purely on communication. We don’t attempt to cover all aspects of leadership, just excellent communication.
Comprehensive training,
no half-haircuts
4 days plus extensive embedding, this training is for life-long learning. Half-day workshops are like half-haircuts, you’ll get something but not everything you need.
Practical exercises,
not a lecture
Engaging and interactive. With some 43 practical exercises, you’ll use what you learn constantly over the four days.
Layered parts,
a cohesive package
Each part of the training layers onto the previous part, helping you build a cohesive package and skills and strategies.
Confidence
and capability
At the end of the four days, you’ll be prepared to apply your learning with confidence to real situations.
