Rapid Consensus™

Buy-in and action from complex meetings

This programme is for anyone who runs challenging or complex meetings where there are multiple perspectives and a need to reach consensus and achieve buy-in as efficiently as possible.

Unproductive group sessions and meetings are all too often the norm. Discussions become battles of will, with little or no buy-in from the combatants who should be colleagues! Frustration and demotivation are the result. If that sounds familiar, you are going to like RapidConsensus™.

Particularly valuable for Project Managers and others responsible for strategy development and significant action plans, you will learn: how to transform dysfunctional groups into effective ones; create an environment where people feel heard and valued; and reach decisions quickly and elegantly – with consensus and buy-in to action.

Coaching Supervision

For those who are coaching others and need time and space to reflect on issues that arise with a colleague, one-to-one or within a facilitated group. This confidential process allows you to raise specific issues, air tensions or use a case study to more fully explore what is taking place in the relationship with your client. This process will enable you to develop your confidence in dealing with the many issues that can arise in one-to-one or small group relationships.
