Sometimes the most important conversations are the most difficult to engage in – Jeanne Philli
Join our training to feel more confident, courageous and skilled to meet any conversation.
This is especially useful if you avoid difficult conversations for fear of causing conflict. Or know there are ‘elephants’ lurking in the shadows undermining trust within your team.
Maybe you would like to work better with difference and diversity, harnessing the creativity differences offer if we were more able to manage the tensions these can create.
Navigating difficult conversations is always a challenge in the workplaces and in life. We all need to upskill ourselves, grow our capacity for ‘Conversational agility’ to have more generative workplaces and more creative lives.
Imagine if you felt less discomfort expressing a different opinion, challenge someone else’s position on an issue or stay calm and open within dynamics of differing opinions. So much so that you could stay calm, on point and focused on generating a positive outcome for all concerned.
Real conversational agility isn’t a birthright, it’s an advanced skill that takes practice.
In this interactive small group workshop series, we learn through exercises, theory bursts, stories and the support of others to bring out what we know, to learn what we don’t and to practice what is well within all of our capacity to bridge these ever-widening gaps between us. We would love you to join us and step up to being proactive in this space; your families, work colleagues and friends and you will be the beneficiaries.

What people say:
‘I thought I would be put into really scary places, mentally and emotionally, but instead it has been so compassionate, and body focused. I realise I do so much better learning in this way’. DM – Brisbane
This is an honest and supportive course to learn how to deepen your conversations with conflicting views. You learn to be curious rather than judgemental of differing viewpoints, to get closer to ‘we’ without losing ‘me’. LA – Canberra.
A course that authentically supports us to deal with difficult conversations – helping us to deal with our human reactions and emotions as we listen and respond. Enhancing our abilities to stay present and hear the other as well as speak our own truth. This is much more than a debating course! SvR – Adelaide
