I Help Teams Make Conflict Safe And Productive
COMMUNICATIONS SKILLS
Weak communication skills sabotage success in all areas of life. Learn how to advocate for yourself, become a world-class listener, and collaborate effectively.
CONFLICT MANAGEMENT
Successful teams and relationships do not run from conflict, they navigate it skillfully. Make conflict your ally.
​
TRUST BUILDING
Trust erodes in the absence of skillful communication and healthy conflict. Bridge misunderstandings and restore your team’s belief in each other.
Empower Your Team To Be Agents Of Excellence
When your team knows what they can do and say in a challenging situation, they have the competence and confidence to decisively tackle the issues at hand
CONFLICT MANAGEMENT TRAINING
Learn what you can do as a leader to help your team sort out disagreements while strengthening communication and trust.
All too often teams and individuals will build ineffective workarounds rather than addressing the matter at hand. Conflicts are an inevitable and unavoidable part of working in a team. They do not need to be destructive and can be leveraged as a powerful force for cohesion, trust, and agility building.

TEAM DEVELOPMENT TRAINING
It’s one thing to intellectually understand that we all think differently. Actively looking out for those differences and shaping your communication for more effective interactions is something else entirely.
​
Cohesive teams are built upon a foundation of understanding. Expand your team’s skillset to effectively understand and work with one another.
​
CONFLICT RESOLUTION FACILITATION
Stop avoiding the difficult conversations and unresolved anger that are making your work environment toxic.
​
A skilled facilitator or mediator makes even entrenched, unresolved conflicts manageable. Detachment, training and focus on making communication happen can open the door to productive conversations and lasting conflict resolution.
ANXIETY COACHING
In most business contexts, anxiety is a dirty word. But often it’s the elephant in the room: wreaking havoc, disrupting productive conversation and slowing down work.
Anxiety isn’t a dirty word. It is normal and central to being a human being. There are simple tools and processes that can help leaders and teams effectively tackle and reduce anxiety. And you don’t have to have a PhD to do it!
GETTING STARTED
Stop running from common soft skill challenges (conflict, communication, anxiety, and team dynamics) and build the confidence and competence to address them will skill and grace.

What people are saying...
“Erik helped us (as a couple) regain clarity of thought during a time of great stress and anxiety, by asking questions that peeled away the layers of complexity to reveal the core of the issues, which were then much easier to deal with than the mess he distilled the issues from. With regained perspective, we were able to make the decisions necessary to get our family out of the situation(s) causing the stress.”
