Customize your
courses
If it’s a specific soft-skill you’d like to address, the themes below are high energy trainings that are ready to deliver live in your organization from £490. Each training is customizable depending on your needs, and if you don’t see the topic that’s right for you, we can also develop bespoke trainings to meet your needs.
Many of our clients combine individual trainings into a virtual boot-camp which is run over several weeks. Here the modules build off each other and there’s more space for discussion and coaching. Plus, a more measurable impact on behavioural change, versus one-off trainings.
Virtual presentation and storytelling skills
In our ‘Virtual presentation and storytelling skills’ short course (60-90 minutes) we share how to drive engagement in virtual meetings, and how to increase influence when all your interactions are virtual. We talk about the importance of storytelling, and how to structure your presentations for maximum impact.
Participants will leave the course with improved knowledge of the difference between face to face and virtual presentations. They’ll be better story-tellers, with a host of actionable tips, tricks and tools to improve their virtual interactions.
Choose Empathy
Empathy is not just a buzzword. According to Forbes it’s THE most important leadership skill for innovation, engagement and retention. Empathy enables us to put ourselves in the shoes of another person and experience their feelings. Learn how an increase in organizational empathy can have direct results not only on collaboration and team-building, but also on improved innovation, better sales and marketing, and increased performance!
Strengthen your
empathy muscle
In our ‘Choose Empathy’ short course (60-90 minutes) you will learn how and why the fastest-growing organisations are investing in driving empathy in their teams. And how there’s more to it than just a ‘free fruit Friday’!
We’ll discuss what empathy is and how it differs from sympathy. We’ll explore how to build empathy in virtual connections, and examples of empathic language. And we’ll share practical tips and tricks for boosting empathy in your teams.
Choose Productivity
There are hundreds of courses out there on Time Management. Actually ‘Time management’ is a misnomer – no one can effectively manage time. It marches on with or without our control! What we can manage is ourselves. Do you or your teams feel overwhelmed and find it difficult to prioritize what really matters? Do you often reach the end of a day, frazzled but without having ticked off anything on your ‘to do’ list?
Beat procrastination! Take control of
your ‘to-do list’
This short course (60-90 minutes) on productivity is precisely for those who report they’re ‘too busy’ for training. We’ll look at some tips and tricks for putting you back in control of your workload, and will help you prioritise your most critical activities using the Eisenhower Matrix and other tools. We’ll examine procrastination – why we do it, how to be mindful of it and how to work through it. And we’ll look at how your mindset has a direct link to your productivity.
Choose Resilience
These are extraordinary times in business. Volatile markets caused by geo-political instability. The Covid ‘hangover’ which has contributed to declining markets and record levels of inflation. The isolation and lack of employer ‘connectedness’ which can result from prolonged remote working. There’s a plethora of research and news articles on ‘avoiding burn-out’ and managing stress/anxiety, such that even if we’re feeling OK, we might feel like negative mental health could ‘strike’ at any time!
Perhaps it’s time to turn the rhetoric around and choose resilience. Choose positive habits that will help us feel great 80% of the time, and successfully manage the 20% of time when we are challenged.
Practical tools to help you bounce back
This short virtual ‘Choose Resilience’ course focuses on positive mental health and resilient habits that will increase your overall wellbeing, and your ‘bouncebackability’. It’s a high energy, pragmatic training that encourages participants to see the control they have over their mindset, with actionable tools to use when times get tough.
Choose Growth Mindset
You’ve probably heard the Henry Ford quote “Whether you think you can, or think you can’t – you’re right”. Our mindset is often our most crucial influencing factor on our success – more important than our skills, competencies or network. The good news is that Growth Mindset can be learnt, and it’s never too late to develop yours!
A corporate mindset
for growth
The Choose Consulting module on Growth Mindset is a 60-90 minute virtual training course that challenges your teams to examine their own mindset. We explore the plasticity of our brains, the neuro-science surrounding the topic of mindset, and situations in which your teams can overcome a tendency towards fixed mindset.
Choose Vitality
We all know ‘those people’ who seem to have life nailed. They’re unfailingly positive, bounce back from adversity, accelerate their careers, have time for others, and ‘shine’ with positive energy … kind of annoying, hey?! So instead of envying them, join them! Most people have the capability to improve their health, their mindset, their career and their relationships. It takes a shift of mindset and the consistent application of healthy habits, and it can be done.
About the
course
In the short ‘Choose Vitality’ course we’ll examine some of the habits that may be holding your teams back. And we’ll show them some new HABITS™ that should improve energy levels and their zest for life. It all starts with mindset. Are you ready to examine the mindset in your organization?
Improve your powers of influence
Some people demonstrate an almost 'voodoo' level of influence over others. Think of that leader or manager who had a seminal impact on your own career - the one you would have 'done anything' for. Chances are their impact was not just down to their own performance and charisma - it was about how they made YOU feel. But how do you improve your powers of influence in a hybrid organisation, when you rarely see your colleagues face to face? What are the tips and tricks to building gravitas and networking successfully in a virtual organisation?
About the module
In our ‘Improve your powers of influence’ short course (60-90 minutes) we examine the key principles of influencing others, and how to work these in a virtual/hybrid organisation. **Spoiler alert** – it’s not always about you! It’s about how you focus on others and listen to their needs. We look at the importance of networking and developing your (virtual) network. And we discuss how to build your own gravitas and develop brilliant virtual presentation skills, including hacks for presenting via Teams or Zoom.
