Questions We Hear Most
Q: Can you build training on a specific skill, such as giving feedback or storytelling?
Organizations often come to us with one skill in mind, and we design the workshop around it. We start by asking who will attend and which situations they face, since the same skill looks different for an individual contributor than for a senior leader, then adapt the content and examples to fit. Giving and receiving feedback, storytelling, and difficult conversations are examples of skills we can build a workshop around.
Q: How many people can attend one session, and how long should it run?
Virtual workshops work well with up to about 30 participants, and as many as 40 when a second facilitator joins, because breakout discussion is what makes the session useful. We recommend two hours for virtual sessions, since attention drops after that. In person, three hours works because people can stay engaged longer, and longer sessions with breaks are possible when your group is used to them.
Q: Can managers and their direct reports attend the same workshop?
Yes, and we plan for it in advance. Where the topic is sensitive, such as feedback, we place managers and direct reports in separate small groups so people can be candid, then bring everyone back together around a shared language. Case studies are built to feel realistic without pointing at anyone in the room.
Q: Can you train our own facilitators to deliver the workshop?
We can, and we will tell you plainly whether it fits. A train-the-trainer model makes sense when you need to reach a large number of people over time and have internal facilitators with the capacity to teach it, which tends to describe larger organizations than the mid-sized ones we typically serve. For a smaller audience, having us facilitate is usually the better use of your team’s time.
Q: What affects the cost of a training workshop?
Format and length drive most of it: in-person workshops cost more than virtual ones, and sessions beyond about two and a half hours, or with a second facilitator, cost more as well. Planning several runs of the same workshop can lower the per-session rate. When we facilitate, design and content development are included in the workshop price, and a train-the-trainer arrangement is quoted separately.
