Workshops are generally one day in length but they can be longer and more in depth as required. Follow up individual and/or group coaching is also offered where requested, bearing in mind that skill development is a process not an event. Individual and group coaching both take the form of reviewing what seems to be working and what isn't going so well and brainstorming optional approaches to specific issues. Group coaching has the added advantage of providing opportunities for the original workshop participants to share experiences and learn from each other.
