BURST TRAINING MODULES 
 

Effective meetings are sums of many different elements.  Participants easily lose interest if meetings are monotonous and predictable.   In this module, we’ll cover the ingredients necessary to engage the audience, reduce speaker anxiety, and make a huge impact.

​

Connect with participants in an attention-getting manner, control anxiety, and deliver memorably.

​

Many senior executives use active listening skills to better understand differing opinions and diverse ideas.  Active listening creates empathy and helps the other person feel that they’re being heard.  This is the foundation of trust and moving ideas forward together.

​

Participants will discover what it means to be neurologically collaborative and innovative through conversations.  Our brains identify others as friend or foe in less than 1 second.  Make sure you don't fall into the foe category.

 

Your coach is an expert in transpersonal psychology, design thinking, and interpersonal neurobiology.  She instructs at Stanford University and UC Berkeley as part of their professional development programs.

Clear and concise emails and reports exude confidence and executive communication skills.  Unlike oral communication, emails don't have the benefit of vocal tone or non-verbal cues like facial expressions.

​

In this module, our coaches will teach techniques that produce concise and clear emails that build collaboration (even if your answer is "no").  

*This module also requires module 5 as a prerequisite.

In this module, you’ll learn our 3 Act Story Structure which makes planning and executing your presentation memorable with powerful stories.  The 3 Act Storytelling Structure will remove presentation “stiffness,” increase the effectiveness of delivering data and make your message memorable and concise.

​

Great storytellers are hard to forget.

​

​

Sometimes saying “NO” is necessary.  How you deliver the response can either create resentment or lead to collaboration and a solution.  In this highly interactive session, we will use Burst’s AVR Technique (Ask / Verify / Renegotiate) to open “mental gates” and establish a collaborative atmosphere.

​

Identify communication patterns that may have been learned through gender roles  (Reacting vs. Responding, Perfectionism, Minimizing Language, and In-Effective Body Language).

​

Own your most effective "voice" by communicating your strength as a woman, and maximize your impact.

*This module also requires module 5 as a prerequisite.

Audiences often judge how they feel about us from the weak language and non-verbal communication we use while delivering our message. Controlling "filler words" and eliminating constant hand gesturing will keep the audience's attention span high and improve message memorability. 

 

Learn to harness the power of your voice and gestures in this fun and highly interactive training.

​

A clear, concise, and logical presentation maintains the audience's attention and effectively delivers key takeaways.  The Burst Diamond will give you a framework for delivering a powerful presentation that builds to a solution along with a simple structure to follow.  

​

Understand the impact of cultural conditioning, heighten self-awareness of communication patterns, and practice ways to successfully transform gender communication rituals.

​

We will deconstruct "triggers" to understand the neurobiology of interaction dynamics regardless of the circumstances.
