HOW WORKSHOPS WORK

Standalone Engagement

Perfect for:

  • One-time leadership development need

  • Conference or offsite programming

  • Team intervention at critical moment

 

Process:

  1. Discovery call to understand your needs and context

  2. Custom design based on your specific challenges

  3. Pre-work (if appropriate) to maximize session time

  4. Delivery (virtual or on-site)

  5. Follow-up materials and recommendations

Investment: €3,500 - €15,000+ depending on duration, customization, and format

Integrated with CAO Engagement

Workshops are often integrated into larger capability-building engagements:

  • Leadership alignment sessions during diagnostic phase

  • Change champion training as part of capability building

  • Team development sessions during implementation

  • Executive coaching integrated with strategic workshops

 

When bundled with CAO or implementation partnerships, workshops are included in the overall engagement investment.

CLIENT FEEDBACK

"Kelly's intercultural collaboration workshop helped our newly merged leadership team navigate tensions we didn't even realize we had. The session was practical, not theoretical - we left with concrete practices we still use today." - Marcus A., Senior VP, Banking

"We brought Kelly in for a leadership team offsite on adaptive capability. She pushed our thinking while making it practical and actionable. Six months later, we're still referencing the frameworks we built in that session." - Sarah T., COO, Digital Services
