LEARNING THAT MEETS REAL LIFE
Talks create a shared language. Small-group workshops make space to try a different conversation.
THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE
The formats below are programme options for discussion, not scheduled events or fixed packages.
FOUR STARTING THEMES
Each session is adapted to the audience, facilitator competence and agreed delivery setting.
For: teams balancing deadlines, family responsibilities and availability expectations.
Explore: what is agreed, what is assumed and where a boundary needs a conversation.
Practise: rewrite “I cannot do this” as a specific request about timing, priority or handover.
Take away: a personal boundary map and one conversation to prepare.
Discussion format: 60-minute talk or 90-minute workshopFor: employees managing competing demands or a period of change.
Explore: pressure sources, signs of overload and what can realistically change.
Practise: sort a fictional workday into “mine to act on”, “shared decision” and “needs support”.
Take away: a workload conversation prompt and a realistic recovery plan.
Discussion format: 60-minute talk or 90-minute workshopFor: colleagues, working parents and people navigating recurring friction.
Explore: the difference between an observation, an interpretation and a request.
Practise: turn “You never help” into a specific request with a clear next step.
Take away: a conversation planner that leaves room for the other person’s response.
Discussion format: 90-minute small-group workshopFor: people managers who want a clearer, kinder way to check in.
Explore: observable changes, supportive questions and the limits of a manager’s role.
Practise: listen, clarify work-related needs, agree follow-up and signpost appropriately.
Take away: a conversation structure and an escalation route agreed with the employer.
Discussion format: 90-minute facilitated workshopBEFORE WE DELIVER
A strong brief includes the working environment, not just a topic title.
Roles, working languages, group size, participation expectations and whether managers and direct reports will attend together.
Agree an everyday skill, a realistic example and a take-home prompt. Do not promise a clinical or productivity outcome from one session.
Voluntary sharing, no identifiable case discussion, no recording by default and a suitable route for individual or urgent support.
