Workshops and more….
High performance people need great communication skills. Great teams need good and clear working relationships. Excellent companies need clearly expressed messages, impactful presentations, effective meetings and important conversations to happen.
When they don’t, initiatives don’t take off; conversations go awry; teams don’t work at their best; problems get ignored or pushed aside. People don’t fulfil their potential - for themselves of for the business.
We focus on strengths to equip you to be your ‘best self’ whether its a ‘big deal’ presentation, a struggle with cloudy team dynamics, a need for clarity about your leadership style or the challenge of a new position.
Workshops can be stand-alone interventions or a more complex suite of programmes. Whether you have a select and senior cohort or larger groups, Unspoken brings a spirit of inquiry, a raft of innovative processes and great facilitation skills.
At Unspoken there is no off-the-shelf and we pride ourselves on creating executive development programmes that are targeted and tailored to your needs.
Here are a few ideas to start a conversation………..
Leading Yourself
Women in Leadership -discover the particular blocks and challenges that can be unique to women leaders, tackle the ‘authority gap’, bring your ‘best self’ and fully inhabit your authority.
The Neuroscience of Connection -an exploration of our built-in detection systems for threat and belonging, understand how to work with the micro-behaviours that build trust and rapport and explore strategies to motivate and get engagement.
Performed and Embodied Leadership - how to harness your non-verbal communication, look and feel the part and power up your presence.
The Shadow Side of Leadership - explore the idea of leadership and followership as a process, what makes someone your follower or you, theirs and how your ‘shadow’ hinterland can trip you up.
Leading Others
Difficult Conversations - have tough conversations that you might avoid, diffuse and use conflict, deliver feedback that lands and titrate your assertiveness to fit the situation.
Influencing - understand your style, unpick the unconscious aspects of influencing, effectively manage stakeholders and develop your capacity for persuasion upward downwards and horizontally..
Leading High Performing Teams - tackle ‘bad’ meeting culture, unearth hidden dynamics and tackle toxicity that can get in the way of high performing teams.
Leading Change - like death and taxes change in inevitable and so many change initiatives fail for lack of buy-in. Explore individual responses to change and how to lead the willing and the less so.
Leading the Message
Presentation Skills
How to look and feel confident, use story telling to engage your audience, go ‘commando’ (no slides not no pants), understand and work with your patterns under pressure and trouble shoot those nightmare moments every presenter faces.
Media training
Whether you are choosing to tangle with the press or its been forced upon you, learning how to take the initiative, speak with impact, and avoid being derailed can turn what feels like a high pressure moment into a win.
