Turning Feedback Into Opportunity

What if your soft skills training isn't “sticking” because your learning environment isn’t safe enough? In this high-impact, interactive session, we’ll explore how psychological safety—specifically inclusion and learner safety—is the foundation for building what we now call success skills: communication, empathy, collaboration, adaptability, and more. Whether you’re a facilitator, coach, consultant, or L&D leader, you’ll leave with practical strategies for creating brave spaces where participants don’t just absorb—they activate what they learn.
