"Watching my boss build his Conversational Capacity over the last 18 months has inspired me to do the same.  If he, with his strong "Win" tendency can do it, I can do it with my strong "Win" tendency as well.“

Matty, Frontline Leader

“Building my Conversational Capacity has changed the way I approach problem solving with my team and has led to an increasingly engaged team who feel more comfortable in speaking up and challenging me and others. I recommend Craig Weber’s book and Footbridge Consulting’s course and coaching to any team wanting to go to the next level.” ​

Brennan, Manager

“Since the Conversational capacity program and as the GM of this site, I’m now going into meetings with a partially formed view on next steps and asking for my team’s input on any flaws they see in my thinking. Thankfully, they are taking up the opportunity to challenge my view. It’s immediately led to better quality decisions on my part.”

Cindy, General Manager

“I've witnessed firsthand a behaviour change and better decisions across our offices as people have learned Conversational Capacity. It correlates directly with them coming out of the training and trying it. I’ve seen young, up and coming leaders change from the… I’m right get out of my way approach to…  what can I learn here, I might be missing something.“

Kate, Planner

“Conversational Capacity has enable us to have better, richer conversations, not just in the executive team but with our individual teams as well. We now use candour and curiosity in our daily conversations and we have fun with it. Importantly, I think we have improved the quality of our decision making through our practice of conversational capacity which has a flow on effect for all our employees. Everyone can learn something from Conversational Capacity.”

Ingrid, Executive Member

​

“We had an issue with two workgroups that had been in conflict for a while. Neither were having the right conversations to get their frustrations out and dealt with, partially because they didn’t know how to do it well. As part of a workshop to resolve the technical issues, we brought in Footbridge Consulting to present Conversational Capacity, by author Craig Weber, and arm them up with the ability to have difficult (but great) conversations.  Would recommend for any roles that have to engage with others on hard issues.”

Ross, National Manager

“Over the last 3 years we have worked with Footbridge Consulting, to build our Conversational Capacity as a leadership team. Our ability to recognise and manage our “Winning” and Minimising tendencies has grown, and we’ve seen how balancing Candour and Curiosity leads to far more effective decision making. I recommend it to any teams seeking to leverage the collective skills, knowledge and talent of every individual in the group to maximise collaboration and effective decision making.”

Lauren, General Manager

“As a General Manager I have used Conversational Capacity, and in particular the skills of Testing and Inquiry, to help me make more informed decisions on a range of operational and safety issues over the last 2 years. It can be difficult to use it under pressure, but it’s worth it. I recommend Craig Weber’s book and Footbridge Consulting’s program and practical coaching support on its content.”

Tom, General Manager

"Footbridge efficiently helped simplify the way we discuss performance, build team capability and introduced problem solving techniques that delivered tangible results.”

Manager, Anglo American

"Footbridge don’t offer a product that you have to fit your organisation’s needs into.  They have worked with us for 18 months and the interventions we have jointly designed are truly custom built to deliver what we needed”

HR Manager, RioTinto

“ I have had my supervisors come up to me and thank me for sending them on the program because of the impact it has had on them. It has given us all something to rally around. It is a great program”
