As the "Leadership Champ" I help leaders EXCITE their teams about their work. I believe that every leader has the potential to improve individual and team performance in their workplace. However, during my work with a great many leaders over 30 years, across a range of businesses, I’ve found that there is one particular challenge that holds them back - being able to have difficult conversations with team members, co-workers or even their boss. 

 

I use live actors in a stop/start forum theatre for business approach and a combination of dynamic experiential learning techniques to allow people the opportunity to practice their skills in a safe environment that they can then implement back in the workplace.
