VIRTUAL WORKSHOP:
COACHING FOR IMPACT
& NAVIGATING DIFFICULT CONVERSATIONS
Join fellow Leadership Exchange participants for a two-part virtual workshop designed to strengthen your coaching skills and help you navigate tough conversations more effectively.
These sessions are highly interactive, with more than half the time dedicated to practice in small breakout groups. You’ll learn tools for giving feedback, building team trust, and managing difficult dynamics—with space to apply what you're learning in real time.

✺ Frequently asked questions ✺
-
Yes! Please join. If you’re looking for more hands-on experience or time to apply the tools, this is a great way to build on what you learned.
Session 1 includes less than 30 minutes of content, followed by extended practice, and session 2 is entirely practice-focused and shaped by your real needs.
-
You’re encouraged to attend both parts, but if you can only make one, that’s fine—we’d still love to have you. Session 2 will build on content from session 1, so if you are unable to attend session 1 and did not previously participate at the AVA summit, you'll be missing some key information.
-
No. You're welcome to mix and match sessions based on what works best for your schedule, assuming there is space in the session (e.g., attend Session 1 with Bobbi Wegner and Session 2 with Galya Atanasova, or vice versa).
-
While we'd love to up-skill as many movement leaders as possible, we are limiting this event to participants of The Leadership Exchange due to capacity and budgetary reasons. We ask that you please not share this event outside of The Leadership Exchange.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more.
