Creating Brave Spaces Self-Paced Course
To unlock the full potential of every individual by equipping them with the skills to be brave leaders who embrace diverse perspectives when leading through conflict and having difficult conversations.
Have you ever wanted to learn how to approach an emotionally charged conversation with confidence? In this online course, you will learn strategies to stay in control during a difficult conversation, communicating in a way that aligns with your authentic leadership style and values.
Individuals can struggle in communicating with confidence, especially when they need to have a difficult conversation with someone on their team.
Communication is one of the easiest skills to improve. Improving your communication skills takes intentional practice and effort and it begins with a willingness and ability to ask powerful questions. The second powerful skill in improving your communication is active listening.
To revolutionize the workplace by creating brave leaders who show up authentically, encourage comfort in discomfort, foster psychological safety, and enable others to respond to challenges and conflict with compassion and curiosity.
Anyone who wants to develop the confidence and ability to be brave in the workplace, have difficult conversations, and manage through conflict. This course has been designed to give you the competencies and the mindset to lead yourself and others with courage. You do not have to possess a formal leadership title to lead others.
You will explore how your mindset contributes to the way you approach a conversation and potential conflict. You will also be able to evaluate your active listening skills through a self-assessment. You will develop strategies you can implement to stay in control during a difficult conversation. You will also be encouraged to develop a goal and put it into action.
Developing communication skills takes intentional effort and practice, which occurs over a period of time. That is why you will have full year access to the course. That means, you can revisit the course as many times as you need within a one year period. We have learned from our previous learners that after completing the course they felt more confident in seeking a promotion, which they were successful in achieving! As a result, they went back into the course to reassess and establish new developmental goals based on their new position.
As mentioned above, developing communication skills takes intentional effort and practice, which occurs over a period of time. Most online, self-paced courses consist of a series of videos, accompanied by PDFs and quizzes. These type of course formats are great in acquiring new knowledge, but do very little to influence and improve performance. Our courses are designed in a format that will allow you to engage in deep self-reflection and an opportunity to assess your ability to actively listen, and active experimentation of your newly acquired skills.
As part of the course, you will have access to a learning accompaniment, called a GAP Plan, which stands for Goal/Action, and Proof. Throughout the course you will engage in self-reflection activities that will contribute to insights, knowledge, and areas of personal growth you would like to develop. The areas of personal growth you will identify can be used to create your GAP action plan, which will support the integration of your knowledge into your real life in the coming weeks and months ahead. In addition, we offer exclusive one-on-one coaching to our learners. Coaching is ideal for individuals who would like to develop deep growth and self-exploration to improve their performance. Individuals will work with a coach to develop strategies to tackle current challenges they are facing in their unique work context.
To facilitate the purchase process for you, please contact us at [email protected]. We would be happy to take care of all the backend work (e.g. enrol your team members and prepare an invoice). That will also give us an opportunity to learn more about your team and share tips of how to maximize each team member's learning.
