“With an emphasis on showing me how to listen and receive information before responding, this program is an extraordinary tool for communication on all levels. After just three sessions, I was able to apply this training to all aspects of my life—professionally, as a consultant and trainer, and personally as a mother and Girl Scout leader.”

“In addition to being one of the most validating experiences of my lifetime,
playing ‘Conversations’ has stretched my ‘listening muscles’
and taught me to
be more introspective. I have used these skills to validate and challenge my
clients and my students. I recommend ‘Conversations’ to everyone,
no matter their level of listening or communication skill.”

“I believe that ‘Conversations’ is a wonderful tool for any
organization to assist to develop a better understanding of each other, themselves,
and assisting in the process of integrating new team members. We came away
a much stronger team, and many members had developed higher levels of respect for
individual team members. Thank you for introducing us to such an interesting
and inspirational game.”

Diversity of opinion is not something to tolerate, it is something
celebrate. Every strong organization realizes that it is the diversity
of its staff in their knowledge, their skills, and their attitudes that makes
the organization a strong and vibrant unit.
‘Conversations’ is a major breakthrough in how people
communicate and relate to each other through genuine dialogue. The
repeated use of ‘Conversations: Workshop-in-a-Box’ will
create a positive change in the culture and ethos of the workplace.
‘Conversations: Workshop-in-a-Box’ looks like an interactive
board game, like a communication ice-breaker designed to develop and enhance

business units, within levels of responsibility, or as a tool to bring
together people across the organizational hierarchy regardless of position.

‘Conversations’ with Friends |
|
“Excellent adult conversations taken to a deeper level... The most valuable...
The power of listening... Stay open through the process and allow yourself to be
vulnerable.”
|
|
“Thought-provoking... Interesting... Opening up communication... Come with an
open mind and willingness to open up and learn”
|
|
“The first thing I learned was about me—even though I am a coach and
listening is the main part of my job, I still found it a challenge not to respond,
or at least think in responses to the comments that were made. The second thing
I learned was more of a reinforcement of what I already knew—that we are all
connected—it is just being more aware of that fact that enlightens us to more
opportunities.”

‘Conversations’ invites people to share individual insights and to
listen openly to those of others. It is through the sharing of our stories and
experiences that we discover more about ourselves.
‘Conversations’ is a board game with three stacks of cards and a booklet
of instructions on how to play. When you open the box you create a unique
experience for your friends and family.
The game is broken up into three cycles, each cycle building upon the previous
one. The first cycle depicts different aspects of life including education,
family & friends or career. The second cycle looks at how this aspect fits
into your life and how that situation faces you now. Finally, the third cycle moves
the conversation to a higher perspective by moving past any initial limitations.
People who played often say that they:
- Learned to be open with others
- Were able to truly listen
- Started thinking more laterally
- Recognized that others have similar personal aspects
- Understood that everybody has issues that someone else will always relate to
‘Conversations’ is designed to be played by two or more people when open
communication is desired. On a practical level, the game can be played with more
than eight people, but then a facilitator is strongly recommended to ensure that everyone
is accommodated. A Facilitator's Training Program is available for large groups
including study groups and business seminars.
