The 6 Sessions
Session 1 – Know yourself to lead yourself
Banish your nerves and remain calm and in control no matter how difficult the conversation. Learn what triggers you and discover how to overcome those feelings to facilitate those crucial conversations.
Session 2 – Care then Dare tool
Learn about the two dimensions of the “Care then Dare” model. See how you’re using it now and learn the skills you need to transfer those behaviours into more challenging situations.
Session 3 – Leaders must care
Discover the three behaviours that show that you care to build trust and engagement in your team. You’ll get the chance to embed these skills with recorded practice sessions and feedback.
Session 4 – Leaders must dare
If your people trust you, they’ll actively seek your feedback. Learn the 3 steps to creating a culture of honest conversations that drive desire for improvement. Practice your new-found skills in recorded sessions with targeted feedback.
Session 5 – Creating a culture of honest conversations
With the 3 steps fresh in your mind, learn how to make them an integral part of your workplace culture.
Session 6 – Implementing this back in the workplace
The theory is great, but it’s useless unless you know how to apply it in the real world. You’ll find out how to implement everything you’ve learned in a way that’s unique to your workplace. Create new habits and learn how to collaborate with your manager to make positive changes that last.

How to persuade your boss this is a good idea:
You’ll build the conditions for your teams to win.
Doing difficult conversations well builds team spirit with the superpowers of truth and trust.
Your people won’t be consumed by unspoken niggles that grow into resentment. Instead, they’ll drive their energy into more important areas that will deliver results.
When your team members care about each other enough to make themselves uncomfortable by having those crucial difficult conversations, you have the basis of a high performing team.
By giving your team the framework to have these difficult conversations, you’ll have given them the tool they need to become the best version of themselves at home and work.

Angela is one of the best trainers I have ever worked with. She uses a great mixture of science, theory, practical exercises and electronic applications to keep the audience engaged throughout any of her courses. She has a great skill at listening to an individual’s input, but still keeping to topic and to time. One of Angela’s greatest skills is building training material specific to a team’s needs, but aligning to wider business strategies and using expert views to deliver material that is well thought through and validated.

Angela has delivered many development programmes to our managers at Allied Bakeries and the feedback is always excellent.
