Better Culture Starts with Better Conversations

The culture of your organization is more powerful than your strategy and more persistent than your vision. It’s the environment that enables performance or undermines it.

Better Conversations Every Day™ (BCE) starts with a simple — yet transformative — premise: that better culture starts with better conversations.

No matter the size of your organization, BCE helps drive business outcomes and create lasting change. Uniquely created for everyone and every single conversation — from the front desk to the corner office — BCE’s impact transcends that of a typical coaching skills program. This scalable, one-day experience creates a common mindset, skillset, and language and equips leaders with the tools to break down communication barriers and bring your business strategy to life.

Everyone wants better outcomes. Build them on a foundation of better conversations.

Here’s what Better Conversations Every Day can do:

  • Drive culture change at scale
  • Break down silos and communication barriers
  • Unlock employee engagement
  • Accelerate emotional intelligence at every level
  • Address issues with openness and respect
  • Transform performance management with everyday conversations that matter
  • Ignite a feedback-rich coaching culture

Imagine a workforce with the courage and skill to unearth truth, grapple with difficult issues, unlock collaboration, and create a liberating space for discovery and action — in real-time, while doing real work.

Payment plan available: $495 deposit plus 10 payments of $85.50, paid every four weeks.

Lead 4 Success®

Equip people at all levels of the organization to master the fundamentals of leadership.

Lead 4 Success® moves leaders from average to high-performing by developing the 4 fundamental leadership skills — self-awareness, learning agility, influence, and communication — that leaders at any level need to master for success.

The importance of developing fundamental leadership skills cannot be understated. No matter their intelligence, experience, or drive, leaders at every level need the same 4 core skills to be effective and grow within an organization. 

  • Self-awareness: Understand your behavior’s impact on organizational outcomes
  • Communication: Effectively communicate goals and inspire trust
  • Influence: Be comfortable persuading, promoting, and delegating
  • Learning agility: Know when to change course, and help others to do so

The Fundamental 4 have endured the test of time, and are the basis for our Lead 4 Success® program, where participants immerse themselves in development, adapt these skills to their own leadership contexts, participate with peers in learning, and share ideas to apply to their leadership lessons to their real world. 

Payment plan available: $495 deposit plus 21 payments of $68.18, paid every two weeks. Final payment of $68.22.
