ABSTRACT Reviews

A very informative and interesting course with relaxed presentation style from both facilitators. Good examples used to illustrate the points being put across.

Interesting subject matter and conversations that developed in the session. I like the focus on inclusivity, humility, fear of failure. I agree that these are important leadership qualities. I'm still struggling with how to make concrete commitments and actions, although I agree it's important to actually turn talking into action which so often gets lost with training. I manage 2 members of staff so don't see myself as particularly senior so I'm thinking of the areas where I can have influence in the areas we discussed.

Great to see D&I coming to life and for us as managers to understand the role we have in creating safe spaces to enable an inclusive culture. Safe spaces kept coming up in discussion so something we should focus on... it speaks to the feedback Abstract received on this blame culture we seem to still be holding onto. We as managers need to role model it's ok to make mistakes if we are to improve. We need to make sure we are approachable and people are not left to 'fail' and accept the 'consequences' Great course with really engaging facilitators

a good mix of talking, presenting and break out sessions. i learnt something!

I can't wait to try out in my Team Meeting next week

As Clay seemed quite softly spoken I would like to hear his volume increased a little before the next module if possible, otherwise presentation was well balanced & well paced, with both Clay & Lou invested in their work. I would also like to see the training promoted more widely among non-management to give staff a better understanding of the organisations will to change its culture & to help build the trust of staff in their management to assist in facilitating a widespread acceptance of 'uncomfortable conversations' being held in safe spaces. Tell the staff when, why & how cultural competence is being improved in their managers & most importantly why the staff are VITAL in making this work for all. Not every staff /manager relationship is perfect so how do those staff & managers get their voices heard ?

Excellent content and structure; could have used and agenda and timing of what to expect in the 2.5 hours, better introductions from everyone and 10 min break slightly earlier please!

Very impressed with the course so far. As always it would be lovely to have longer for discussion but totally understand the time constraints. The facilitators are very engaging and thought provoking. I am impressed how in an online meeting they manage to exude so much energy and get such good conversation going.

nicely balanced, iot's challenging to engage with this online but they did a good job of getting that engagement going. i felt this was quite introductory so looking forward to advancing things at next meeting

Would be good to have more content within the course workbook
