Workshops & Training
For Leaders and Teams
THE ONE-DAY WORKSHOP
Bradley's full-day workshop is built for leaders & teams ready to move,
not just listen.
Six hours, three sessions, one shift.
Session 1
Groove Mindset (90 min)
An introduction to the framework. Linear thinking vs. circular thinking. The Line and the Circle. Teams leave this session with a new lens and a shared vocabulary for everything that follows.
Session 2
Training in the Circle (90 min)
The framework moves from concept to practice. Designed specifically for where your team is, by level and by need. Teams move from isolation into collaboration, and leaders hiding in plain sight begin to surface.
Session 3
Groove Activation (90 min)
This is the session people talk about on the drive home.
Live artists. Full production. Bradley steps into the circle himself. Every person in the room leaves knowing what they carry, what they offer, and how they fit.
Workshop includes an opening orientation, two breaks,
a working lunch, and a closing reflection. Each participant works through a personal assessment throughout the day, leaving with a clear picture of who they are, what they carry, and what they have to offer. Teams are re-engaged and unified in activated, thriving workplaces.
The future doesn’t belong to the loudest in the room.
It belongs to those brave enough to step in.

Instead of getting defensive, I chose to engage, listening to others regardless of their technical expertise, and allowing them to help with the solution. It was magical!"

It was incredible!"
