It’s easy for companies to overlook or underinvest in the processes and practices that power their hiring, onboarding, knowledge capture, collaborative communications, productivity and day-to-day operations.
A workshop or project partnership with an outside expert will yield compounding returns on your people and business growth long into the future.
Workshops
High-impact. Low-budget. Perfect for team offsites or lunch-and-learns that will leave your team excited and empowered.
As a guest speaker, I can supercharge your team’s tactics and approach through an interactive 1-hour workshop tailored to your top operational and cultural priorities.
These workshops can also each be delivered as personalized 1-on-1 coaching or can be expanded into longer series, regular office hours, or delivery alongside embedded project work.

Your time is finite, and ruthlessly prioritizing and efficiently executing on your or your team’s top goals requires streamlined processes that are deeply adapted to the preferences and catalysts of each individual person.
In this workshop, tailored to the tools and approaches your team uses, we’ll use group discussions and hands-on team exercises to survey the key productivity practices of well-organized teams, interrogate the pitfalls of common approaches to meetings and digital communication, and identify your team’s preferred ways of working to ensure optimal collaboration.

Actively cultivating a strong culture of continuous, direct feedback is essential for a team’s people to trust each other with their mutual growth goals and to achieve peak performance.
In this workshop, we’ll use group discussions and interactive examples to delve deep into the value of free-flowing feedback, practice how to deliver it effectively using my six principles of great feedback, learn how to receive and reflect on tough feedback, and explore different processes for building regular feedback hygiene into team operations.

High-precision interviewing and hiring is a critical input to an organization’s long-term success, and optimizing outcomes requires interviewers to be active stakeholders in the hiring process and to be skilled in the soft skills and hard skills of maximizing the signal gathered during interviews.
In this workshop, we’ll use hands-on team exercises and interactive examples to rigorously shape facet-scoped hiring profiles, design carefully targeted question banks, execute effective followup questions, and evaluate candidates with clarity.

As a standalone project, or in conjunction with other types of projects, my team productivity audit covers task management, communications management, prioritization, meetings and more.
While I work with your team, I’ll get to know them, briefly interview its members on their pain points, and sit in on its meetings and digital communication channels.
I’ll use my findings to leave behind custom written artifacts and a report with recommendations on the best approaches to improving your team’s efficiency.

I’ll lead the design of a custom-tailored, scalable process, leveraging my decade-plus of expertise including, but not limited to:

Designing center-of-excellence programs and knowledge management processes that preserve and scale what works for your organization while minimizing friction
