• Expert witnesses that will be called up to share personal experiences.
• Panel juries across industries to bust fact from fiction on solutions.
• Workshops to aid your investigation with practical takeaways.
• The Persona Room to test your investigative skills.

Get ready to don your detective caps. We’re on the hunt for clues that will crack the case on what meaningful change looks like in the face of disruption and complexity. Separating fact from fiction on the Resilience case that could help people, teams, and leaders to be agile in the face of growing adversity. And to make sense of how to move forward.

Unboxing Neurodivergent Talent:?

Why are the strengths associated with ADHD and ASD being undervalued?

Together we'll explore:

• Why strengths associated with ADHD and ASD often go misunderstood
• Creating a practical lens that breaks stigma and masking behaviour
• Creating a high performance culture through supporting neuro-inclusivity?

You'll also be first to get our new neurodivergence coaching guide and newly updated top tips guide too!

Feedback Planner - Your Difficult Conversations Toolkit

It's the new worksheet for teams that helps you plan your feedback to be as effective as possible. The steps produce a quick plan based on identifying your strengths during feedback, what to expect from who you're talking to, how to connect better, and what others might perceive if you overextend those strengths due to the pressure, challenge or stress of the situation.
