Humans are built to connect

Engagement is a competency.

We teach it.

When your audience feels seen and heard everything changes

When humans connect, teams collaborate, leaders listen, and cultures shift.

Real practice with real people is the only way these competencies develop. Not another assessment. Not another binder. Actual reps, in real time, with immediate feedback.

Built on our Six-Box Model

The process for developing human engagement competencies.

Three questions applied to three relationships. A structure for seeing how you show up under stress, deciding if that's how you want to, and practicing new competencies until they stick.

“I got far more from this program than I ever could have imagined. My Connection Lab program became a watershed moment—where I found a voice I didn’t know I had and a comfort in myself that once felt unattainable.”

Holly Enneking
Vice President of Marketing, Markup AI & Co-Founder, Indy Marketers

“Not only did I learn a TON of actionable practices regarding presentation and leadership that I could apply to my role, but much of this can be used in life. To me, that's such a win.”

Kendra Ferraro

Questions we hear

What's the investment?

Public Workshops use pay-what-you-can pricing ($25-$250 per workshop). Enterprise Programs are custom-quoted based on team size and engagement length.

How does the Six-Box Model™ work?

It's three questions applied to three relationships. Who's your audience, what are you asking for, what's your story? You apply those questions to your relationship with yourself, your content, and your audience. That creates nine combinations—we call it six boxes because it sounds better and people remember it. Each workshop module maps to one element of the model. It's not a diagnostic tool that tells you what's wrong with you. It's a structure for practicing under stress, noticing where you break down, and trying something different until it sticks. Learn more →

Who is this for?

Anyone exhausted by conventional solutions. HR leaders who've watched programs fail. Executives who freeze when it matters. Teams that know their content but can't connect.

What makes this different from personality assessments?

Assessments diagnose you and send you on your way with a label. DISC, Myers-Briggs, Enneagram—they tell you what type you are, maybe give you some insights about yourself, then it's over. We don't diagnose. We practice. You get reps under real stress conditions until new behaviors become automatic. Your MBTI results don't change anyone's behavior. Practice does.

What makes behavior change stick?

Practice, not information. You don't need another book or another framework—you need reps. We create scenarios that trigger real stress responses, then coach you through new ways of responding until those become automatic. It's muscle memory, not theory.

What happens after the workshop?

You get access to Lab Pass, our practice app. It's not a content library or a quiz platform—it's a way to track how you're showing up under stress in real life. Log your experiences, notice your patterns, practice with your cohort between sessions. The workshop gives you the initial breakthrough. Lab Pass keeps the work alive so you're not starting from scratch every time you show up to a hard conversation.

What does "practice over diagnosis" actually mean?

Most leadership development programs spend all their time assessing you—personality tests, 360 reviews, frameworks that label what's wrong with you. Then they hand you a report and leave. You're smarter about the problem but no better at solving it. We skip the diagnosis entirely. You don't need another assessment. You need reps. Real scenarios, real feedback, real behavior change. We practice with you until the new behavior becomes automatic. That's the difference between knowing what you should do and actually doing it under stress.

How long does behavior change take?

You'll notice shifts in the first session—people see themselves differently, catch patterns they've been running for years. But lasting change? That takes practice over time. Most people need a few months of reps before new behaviors become automatic. That's why Lab Pass exists—to keep you practicing between workshops so you're not starting from scratch every time.

Do I need workshops before bringing this to my organization?

No. Enterprise Programs are built for intact teams—you don't need to test-drive anything first. That said, a lot of HR leaders come through Public Workshops before rolling this out company-wide. It's not a prerequisite, but if you want to see how this feels before bringing your whole team in, that's an option.
