The Authentic Communication Course

Learn to communicate in a way that’s powerful and authentic, whether in person or online

The Authentic Communication course offers new and established leaders an opportunity to learn how to communicate powerfully, directly and honestly in a way that others stop and listen.

Over 12 weeks, you will learn the foundations of effective leadership communication including what makes communication effective, how to have others listen to you in the way you intend, and how to say less and have others take you more seriously. These skills are as relevant for working online as they are in person.

You will learn what makes communication effective, and what to pay attention to when speaking, listening and working with others. As a result, you will leave with an approach so you can:

listen beyond the words for when people say yes, but mean no
understand how to communicate appropriately in different situations while still getting what you want
develop practices for speaking, listening and interacting that continue to increase your presence, build your identity and improve how others perceive you.

What’s included

As a participant in the course, you’ll receive the following:

One half hour introductory coaching call
Setting you up for a successful learning experience
Bi-weekly short videos explaining key content before each group session
Every second week, you’ll get new content for you to try out before the group session.
Six, 90 minute group coaching sessions
No role play! We’ll use these conversations to unpack the content and make the learning real.
Additional coaching available to accompany course content (see below)

What’s the approach?

The material in this course is based on Ontological Leadership and Design, a powerful approach that has been developed through global research over the last 60 years and has been used to produce leadership and organisational transformations around the world. As a result, it’s not readily accessible or affordable.

I’m on a mission to offer straightforward approaches to leadership that work, and I created this course to publicly offer these materials that I’ve used with senior leaders. It offers a robust framework for human interaction and communication that helps you better understand other people and how to work with them, in person or online.
