Corporate & Workplace Communication Workshops


 

What’s Up With Me?

What Emotions at Work are Trying to Tell Us.

Ever found yourself emotionally overwhelmed at work and thought, “What’s going on with me?” This session is designed to help you answer that question with compassion, clarity, and curiosity. In fast-paced, high-pressure environments, our emotional reactions can catch us off guard—leading to miscommunication, burnout, or regret. But beneath every strong emotion is valuable information about what truly matters to us.

In this session, we’ll explore how to differentiate between external triggers and the deeper, internal causes of our reactions—our unmet needs. You’ll learn to identify common emotional patterns that show up in the workplace and begin decoding them using a simple, accessible framework grounded in feelings and needs-based communication. Through guided self-reflection and practice, you’ll start shifting from reactivity to self-awareness, developing tools to respond with greater intention and integrity. What’s Up With Me? is a powerful first step toward emotional intelligence that doesn’t bypass the hard stuff—it welcomes it with care.

 

What’s Up With Them?

How to Decode Emotional Signals and Respond Effectively

This session offers a practical, compassionate approach to interpreting and responding to emotional reactions from others. Grounded in the principles of Nonviolent Communication (NVC), we’ll explore how emotions—even the intense ones—are signals that point to core human needs. When we learn how to “decode” those signals, we can shift from reacting to connecting, even in high-stakes situations.

This training is ideal for managers, team leads, HR professionals, and anyone who wants to feel more confident and equipped when others’ emotions run high. Walk away with simple, powerful tools to create more understanding, connection, and resilience in all workplace relationships.

Participants will learn how to:

Recognize emotional cues as expressions of unmet needs rather than personal attacks

Respond with empathy and clarity—even when others are upset or shut down

Stay grounded and curious in emotionally charged conversations

De-escalate tension while maintaining accountability and forward momentum

Build psychological safety and trust through small, skillful responses


The Opportunity in Conflict:

Reframing Disagreement as a Path to Stronger Teams

Conflict isn’t a problem to be avoided—it’s an opportunity waiting to be heard.

In this insightful and practical workshop, your team will learn how to navigate tension with clarity, empathy, and confidence. Rooted in the principles of Nonviolent Communication (NVC), The Opportunity in Conflict helps teams reframe disagreement not as a breakdown, but as a doorway to deeper understanding, innovation, and trust.

Through real-world examples and guided practice, participants will learn how to:

Stay grounded during emotionally charged moments

Listen beneath the surface of criticism or resistance

Identify the underlying needs that drive conflict

Respond in ways that build connection rather than defensiveness

This workshop is ideal for teams, managers, and organizations committed to building emotionally intelligent workplaces where differences don’t divide—but drive meaningful growth.

Let conflict be the catalyst—not the crisis.


Compassionate Collaboration: Nurturing Consensus in Decision-Making

In our workshop, "Compassionate Collaboration," we address the challenges of reaching consensus decisions without resorting to hierarchical power dynamics such as majority rules. Through thoughtful facilitation techniques and a focus on empathy-driven and agile decision making skills, participants will discover how to navigate disagreements and reach agreements that honour diverse needs. Say goodbye to decision-making paralysis and hello to a collaborative culture built on trust, respect, and inclusivity. Join us as we empower you to foster consensus without sacrificing integrity or individual needs.
