Individual call with each learner to get to know each other and understand what they want to get out of the program.

Mutually agree with the learners what should go in Workshop 1.

Common topics are knowing when to speak up, making sure your voice is heard, holding people’s attention, communicating technical ideas to non-specialists, and managing conversation flow.

A highly engaging and interactive half-day face-to-face workshop where we cover the topics we all agreed on. The focus is on actions that learners can practise immediately in their work.

Each learner takes what they’ve learned in the first workshop and applies it in different work contexts, so we can discuss progress in the following coaching call.

I’ve had the opportunity of attending Julian Hamm’s workshop and the quality was exemplary.

The best feature of his workshop is that he tailors it to each individual and ensures that everyone gets the most benefit out of this workshop.

Would recommend him in a heartbeat.
