“I really enjoyed Leading through Conversations. A positive, engaging workshop with practical learnings for leaders and very relevant content with useful tools. I felt really safe and comfortable to contribute and appreciated how research-backed the conversational principles and practices were and that everyone had a genuine chance to participate. I’m a lot more aware now of some of the key principles for having more constructive conversations and dialogue and conversational capability areas I can improve on. Great job Bill…” Jacinta Perry Training Officer Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island Housing
