Testimonials
The insights are surprising. Understanding defense mechanisms, and how to deal with them has been a great benefit. I am so much more effective when using the approaches I learned in this workshop.
Emile S
The insights in this workshop were very beneficial to the companies’ teams that I work with. As a consultant, I work with a variety of small businesses, helping them to increase employee engagement and reduce stress levels within their teams. The team leaders I work with, have found it helpful to understand and deal with the defense mechanisms of the employees on their teams and encourage proactive communication. I highly recommend this training.
Tanys C CHRP
The workshop was fantastic, it brought my team together and explained to them the different ego states. Which they have been using on a regular basis in the work they do. Thanks to James and his team, they were awesome. I highly recommend this workshop to companies looking to engage their employees in understanding conflict resolution. It makes for a better work environment with less toxicity.
