15 topics to choose from
Can’t decide? Consider putting together a series of webinars or speaker sessions to meet your team’s most important communication needs. Our webinars and speaker sessions are lean and highly focused. Each one is a deep dive into a key communication topic.
What to expect
Our webinars and speaker sessions are fast paced, fun and contribute to team building while teaching practical communication skills. Participants practice using their new skills and are given time to reflect on the best ideas they learn and intend to use back on the job.
Two to three weeks before the webinar or speaker session, participants receive an email that explains what to expect. It includes the digital materials and the virtual meeting link. The welcome email also includes an introduction to the facilitator and producer, and participants are welcome to reach out to them before the session with any questions, concerns, or special requests.
Participants enjoy a fast-paced, content-packed session. Some of our webinars and speaker sessions provide tips and best practices at a high level, while others are a deep dive into one skill, such as designing a meeting or telling a story with data. Either way, we keep participants busy using chat and other interactive tools, and ensure there’s as little lecture as possible.
Throughout the learning experience, we encourage participants to write down any good ideas. Taking notes is a powerful way to cement the learning, articulate best takeaways, and commit to using new techniques going forward.
As the session wraps up, we send participants a link to a streamlined post-session evaluation survey. This feedback lets us know how participants feel about the learning, how they’ll apply the skills learned, and if participants see ways we can continue to improve the learning experience. We send you a report summarizing the feedback.
Participants leave with proven skills to improve their communications going forward.

Choose from facilitator-led virtual or in-person sessions
In-person speaker sessions
Learning in person is a hands-on experience. Participants can ask the facilitator questions directly, and they have a whole room full of opinions and knowledge to draw from. Participants benefit from having organic conversations and building relationships, while enhancing their learning experience and boosting retention. Participants interact in a variety of ways to encourage movement and interactivity. Participants bring their laptops to access our digital participant materials, and are encouraged to bring a notepad and writing utensil to take notes.
Virtual webinars
Learning virtually means all learners are at their computers, learning together in real time and led by a facilitator who is also joining remotely. Webinars are great for teams who work in different time zones or geographical areas. Technology makes it easy to interact using chat, polls and breakout rooms. Participants receive their participant materials ahead of time, so they come prepared and ready to learn. Our webinars can be scheduled around the timing that works best for your team. Webinars are both time-and cost-effective, and they deliver excellent results.
