Leadership, Communication, and Coaching Workshops
Most professional development programs focus on the traditional tools of management and staff development, and they miss teaching what’s essential for success: tools for building trust, effective communication, and accountable teams.
Beth Wonson’s Navigating Challenging Dialogue workshops fill those gaps, giving you the tools to build trust, strengthen workplace culture, and empower your organization to fulfill its mission most effectively.
Navigating Challenging Dialogue® is a toolkit for building trust by developing self-awareness, emotional self-regulation, empathy, and curiosity. These skills are necessary for you to be effective in leadership, communication, and incorporating coaching skills into the work environment.
Beth’s Signature Workshops
These workshop are uniquely effective because attendees work with their own scenarios for all activities and practice, so they leave with tools they can apply immediately. All team workshops include a pre-meeting with Beth to ensure any leadership concerns or target areas are addressed.

Transform Your Coaching Skills,
Transform Your Staff
For anyone working with staff, authentic coaching skills are required to close the gap between potential and performance while fostering growth and development.
Many people are under the false impression that coaching is something that comes “naturally” and doesn’t require skill development or formal training.
Even people with a natural propensity to be a good coach need training to build that talent into a valuable skill. This skill is not typically covered in management development courses.
In this workshop, you will learn authentic tactical and strategic coaching, with hands-on practice and interactive assignments. Navigating Challenging Dialogue® is the foundation of the tools we’ll be covering.
