Programs

Rebuilt from the courses I wrote almost a decade ago.

The internet changed. Zoom turned into a verb, and AI can draft a lesson plan in ten seconds. What AI can't do is read the room, catch the person going quiet, or say the unwritten rule out loud. Every program here is rebuilt around that.

First cohorts are forming. Pricing and dates post here when enrollment opens. Get on the list and you hear first.

Course formats

Live and small

Sessions run live on Zoom in small groups, because live groups finish and solo videos mostly don't.

Built for Monday

Every session ends with something you run with your own people that week. If it doesn't change what you do Monday, it didn't work.

Private team sessions

Urban organizations can book any program for their own team. Quoted to scope after a free consult.

Cohort forming

Run the Room Online

Rebuilt from Top 10 Facilitation Strategies and Delivering a Class Online Effectively 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0.

For: trainers, managers and educators who lead live sessions.

You walk out able to

  • Open in the first five minutes so people decide to stay
  • Keep a room of thirty engaged past the twenty-minute mark
  • Use chat, polls and breakout rooms so quiet people can win without performing
Cohort forming

Where Sessions Break

Rebuilt from Pitfalls of Delivering Online Facilitation and Common Facilitator Obstacles.

For: anyone who has watched a session die on screen.

You walk out able to

  • Recover when the tech fails or the room goes silent
  • Handle the one person who takes over the whole session
  • Respond when someone shares something serious mid-session, without turning a training into an investigation
Cohort forming

Build the Material

Rebuilt from Developing Material.

For: subject experts turning what they know into a session.

You walk out able to

  • Start from the outcome and work backward to the activities
  • Build handouts and follow-ups people actually use after the session
  • Draft faster with AI without letting it flatten your voice

Self-paced

The same material without the room. Buy one, and if you move up to the live program within 90 days the price comes off.
