Workshops

Each workshop is tailored to the people in the room and the challenges they’re facing at the time.

Even when the issues seem similar, the culture, the context, the individuals involved and their circumstances can be very different.

Workshops can be stand-alone sessions or part of a broader program, leadership retreat or management off-site.

Most of my workshops focus on one or more of the following:

Performance Under Pressure

How to maintain clarity of mind, make better decisions and bring out the best in themselves and others. They learn why thinking narrows under stress, how to recognize when their judgment has become cloudy, and how to regain clarity quickly.

Teamwork & Alignment

Discovering what really gets in the way of trust and cooperation, and how to reduce unhealty friction, communicate more openly and pull in the same direction.

Service Culture

Creating the kind of workplace where warmth, authenticity and thoughtfulness become the norm, and exceptional service comes naturally. The result is greater loyalty among team members and guests.

How I Work

As a facilitator, my approach is closer to jazz than classical music.

We agree on the outcomes in advance and map out the program, but I don’t follow a rigid script.

How the workshop unfolds depends on the tempo, the mood and the interactions in the room – the questions that arise and the unexpected opportunities. The aim is always to give the group what they need most, not simply to get through an agenda.
