Impact-driven learning
Learning team skills takes more than a couple of hours together in a room or Zoom, and hoping for the best. Here’s how our training is different:
Ben did an awesome job as a trainer. Clear, articulate, responsive to all questions.
Product Manager
This was an amazing course. As a PM, the importance of problem framing is not a foreign concept to me, and I still feel like I learned a lot from this training. What was really great is that I was able to workshop an actual problem I'm currently working on in the class, and I came away with some awesome new insights on that problem
Product Manager, Atlassian
Ben made it happen in a very personalized way. He harvested the problems and situations from our experiences and rolled out the course using that. This course was so far the most productive one I've attended in Atlassian
Program Manager, Atlassian
I wanted to send a big thank you for your brilliant problem framing exercises! I used them as part of a kickoff workshop with a new client and it worked a treat! It was amazing to see them look at their problem in new ways!
Sayoa Jodar, UX Researcher
After our training, I sent a meeting request to 4 Directors about an issue I have been banging on about for a couple of years now. I structured my correspondence like you said, i.e. highlighted the risk, and I have already, this evening, had responses including the following “Thanks Shirralee, your explanation of this opportunity is very helpful, and it sounds very important from a client safeguarding perspective.”... So thank you!
