Team Training
Team communication training your people will actually use
Funny, hands-on workshops where your team puts learning into practice. Every program is built by Aden Nepom around the specific challenges your team is facing with experiences and conversations designed to make new skills stick!
Based in Oregon — training teams worldwide in person or virtual.
Why this training sticks
Here’s the uncomfortable truth about most communication training: people sit, listen, nod along, and by Friday have already forgotten most of it.
Exposure to an idea isn’t how to implement lasting change. Real change takes practice.
That’s why Art of Change training emphasizes doing things. Whether it’s solving a problem collaboratively, practicing a new technique, or utilizing an improv exercise to stimulate new thinking, your team doesn’t just learn about listening better or handling a hard conversation. They’ll gain experience, in a safe and genuinely fun environment, and walk out ready to use what they’ve learned.
Interpersonal Communication Skills
While every Art of Change workshop is customized to the specific needs of our clients, our expertise is centered in these three areas, where better communication matters most.
Building Trust & Influence
Influence isn’t just for sales and leadership anymore. When the stakes are high, everyone benefits from knowing how to be heard, make a case, and bring people along without pushing.
High Performing Teams
Through improv games and hands-on collaboration, your team builds the psychological safety that lets people challenge each other with purpose, take creative risks, and actually innovate together.
Difficult Conversations
It’s not just what people say, it’s how and when they say it. When tensions rise, your team learns to handle the hard moments with grace, candor, and resolution in mind.
