Why managers avoid difficult conversations
(and how to fix it)
Two managers. One’s a runaway success, while the other’s busy doing the work of their direct reports. What’s the difference? One’s avoiding difficult conversations, and the other’s been coached on why we avoid them. Crack difficult conversations with this workshop as well as Part 2: Difficult Conversations – Here’s the Formula.
Darwin – 8 October – 1:30 to 2:15pm | Nhulunbuy – 23 October – 9 to 10am | On-line – 29 October – 10:00 to 10:45am
Difficult conversations – here’s the formula
An effective manager is one who knows how to create accountability.

Being confident in having those tough talks with everyone – including your CEO – will transform your management style and culture.

“Insightful. Invaluable.”
Hannah Bohlin
Owner, Aussie Pooch Nutrition and Wellbeing, Darwin NT
Why marketing doesn’t work
Presented in conjunction with Dante St James from Clickstarter.
We have more access, more knowledge and more experience in marketing than ever in the history of human kind. Yet businesses still fail to grow, stagnate and even shut down. Why then, in a world of hundreds of options, does marketing still not work? And how can we fix that?
Includes networking and morning tea.
Darwin – 11 October – 9 to 10am
Spend 2 hours working on your business, not in it
It’s essential for senior managers to spend time working on the strategy and direction that will set their business apart. But often, operational issues pull them away.
Devote 2hrs to prioritising and planning issues that matter, rather than fighting fires. Return to the office feeling relaxed and focused.
Darwin – 11 October – 10:30 to 12:30pm
Practical solutions for Nhulunbuy managers
Being a manager in a remote community is a 24/7 challenge. Often, there’s nowhere to go for confidential, practical, personalised advice. You could talk to mates in the pub, or you could spend an hour with a professional management coach who understands NT communities. Guaranteed to spark ideas for change.
Nhulunbuy – 22 October – 9 to 3pm
Management in the pub: learn, laugh and grow

Includes prizes and post-event networking and finger food.
