I’m Johnnie Moore, and I help people work better together

I’m going to run a one-day workshop on Difficult Conversations in London on February 20th. I’m doing with this my friend and collaborator Kay Scorah.

As we say in the blurb…

In this workshop we’ll encourage participants to experiment with different ways to have challenging conversations. With a big emphasis on playfully trying stuff out, and without putting too much effort into analysing or idealising. We think of it as the rapid prototyping of behaviour. It brings some of the wisdom of the maker and agile movements to the training sphere.

This is work I’ve been focussing on a lot lately, and it’s an approach I have used in places as far afield at the Solomon Islands and Berlin.  Book here.

And places are still available for a similar, half-day workshop in Cambridge on February 6th.
