Move your teams from friction to traction in 6 weeks

A sprint for managers of international, hybrid teams — so you can focus on the work instead of constantly handling misunderstandings and unresolved conflict.

What changes after 6 weeks

Conflict handled at source, not escalated to your desk.

Managers notice and handle team friction early — instead of you finding out at the exit interview, 6 months too late.

Feedback that moves performance.

Given early, received well, acted on — instead of saved up for review cycles or avoided entirely.

Diverse teams that outperform.

Cultural, linguistic, and generational differences become a source of better thinking instead of slowing things down — even across hybrid and distributed teams.

Less rework, fewer “I thought we agreed”.

Roles, expectations, and ways of working get made explicit, so teams stop revisiting the same decisions.

Managers who can lead, not just deliver.

The people you promoted for their expertise gain the leadership capability the role requires.

Who this is for

Designed for international, hybrid teams working across cultures, languages and time zones.

Does this sound familiar?

  • Pulse surveys with red flags that don’t match what people say in 1:1s
  • Feedback that’s avoided entirely or given too late to matter
  • Conflicts landing on HR’s desk instead of being handled by the manager
  • Teams cordial on the surface but not producing the results high-trust teams do
  • Managers stretched thin, with no time to handle these issues properly

Built for the managers you’re investing in

Capable, motivated, and given the right tools — they become the leaders who handle complexity confidently, build trust across differences, and bring their teams forward.

Our proven method

From Friction to Traction™

Diagnose first, solve second.

Week 1 of every Sprint maps what’s actually getting in the way for your team. The diagnosis tells us where to start: alignment, navigating differences, or cultural and communication gaps.

6 weeks is the middle ground that works.

Long enough for new practices to be tried, adjusted, and tried again. Short enough to actually finish, with a clear start, a clear end, and visible progress in between. The sprint format fits into a manager’s busy schedule: one afternoon for a workshop, fifteen minutes in a team meeting, a 1:1 used for reflection.

Your situations, our tried and true methods.

Your managers bring the real situations they’re handling every day. We bring Cultural Intelligence, Fearless Organisation research, and approaches refined across 300+ teams and 7,000+ managers.

The 6 weeks

Three live workshops. Practice and team conversations in between. One wrap-up.

Week 1 — Root cause analysis (2h live)

A working session that maps what’s actually getting in the way. Pre-work with your contact, input from the managers, and a session to surface the real friction underneath the surface symptoms.

Weeks 2–3 — Workshop 1: Constructive conversations (2h live + 1 week practice)

Difficult conversations, feedback, and learning to name things before they become patterns. Tools applied to the situations surfaced in Week 1.

Weeks 4–5 — Workshop 2: Your team’s focus (2h live + 1 week practice)

The focus is decided after Week 1. Typically: how differences show up at work, how to navigate cultural and linguistic gaps, or how to create alignment through explicit expectations.

Week 6 — Wrap-up (with your main contact)

A closing conversation to review what shifted, what worked, and what your managers should do next.



Between workshops: managers apply the tools to their own teams. We provide reflection prompts and light exercises they can run in a team meeting or 1:1. Light enough to fit into a busy week, specific enough to bring something useful to the next session.

The 90-day confident leadership guarantee

At the end of the Sprint and again at the 90-day mark, participants complete a short confidence reflection. If the results show no meaningful improvement in how managers are leading collaboration day-to-day, we either:

  • Adjust — a dedicated session to understand what didn’t work and move forward in a way that does for your context.

  • Or refund — because we’d rather do right by you than take your money for something that didn’t deliver.

Why we built this

Our roots are in diversity and inclusion. After years of running feedback and leadership development for 300+ teams and 7,000+ managers in 40+ countries, we noticed clients stopped asking “why does this matter” and started asking “what do I do about this on Monday morning.” So we asked the managers directly. The Sprint structure came from that research.

FAQ

Is this just another diversity or feedback training?

No, and if you've sat through awareness sessions or feedback sandwich workshops, you'll feel the difference immediately. This is not about concepts or good intentions. It's about building the practical skills to handle what's actually happening in your teams, starting from session one. Including learning why most feedback conversations fail and what to do instead.



We've tried workshops before and nothing stuck. Why would this be different?

Because a one-off session can create insight but rarely changes behaviour. The sprint runs over 6 weeks with weekly sessions, between-session practice connected to real work, and peer accountability from colleagues in the same organisation. The tools are designed to be used the next day, not filed away.

How much time does this require from our managers?

Two hours for each live workshop, plus a short between-session exercise that connects directly to their actual work. Three workshops over six weeks. We designed it to fit alongside a busy week, not compete with it.



What if not everyone participates equally?

The between-session exercises are designed to deliver insight even if not every participant completes them. The live sessions are facilitated to work with wherever people are no one gets left behind or called out.

Do we need to do a Root Cause Analysis first?

Not required, but recommended if there is visible friction or a specific trigger event. The pre-sprint onboarding call helps us understand your context and ensures the content lands relevantly without requiring a full diagnostic upfront.

Is this only for companies with a DEI agenda?

No. The challenges this sprint addresses (communication across difference, effective feedback, friction that never gets named) show up in every organisation where people with different backgrounds, styles, and expectations work together. That's most organisations today. We focus on providing managers with tools that help teams excel, not providing terminology to have conversations.
