Your input is important to us. Please provide your valuable feedback. Here are some testimonials from our clients:

Há muito interesse neste tópico no meu campus e acho que suas
ferramentas de aprendizagem são realmente fantásticas. Eu
realmente aprecio o suporte que vocês oferecem na preparação
para usá-los também - é muito impressionante e super útil. O
Teste Style Matters foi muito bem recebido pelos participantes do
programa e, como treinador, ele me permite cobrir mais conteúdo
de uma forma mais significativa durante o pouco tempo que
temos em nossos workshops de gestão de conflitos."

What was the biggest benefit? Having what I already knew about myself put on paper. A real catalyst for change and understanding. I read my profile
to my husband to help him better understand me.

There is so much interest in this topic at my campus and I think your learning tools are really fantastic. I really appreciate the support you offer in getting prepared to use them too - it's very impressive and super helpful. The Kraybill Conflict Styles Inventory has been really well-received by program participants, and as a trainer it allows me to cover more content in a more meaningful way during the limited time we have in our conflict skills workshops.

Thanks for making the process seamless. One issue out of approximately 100 students is a great %!
Kudos to all for great communication!

...it is always instructional to me. I have also used it with professionals (engineers, planners, lawyers) and find it effective in introducing concepts and skills of conflict resolution.

The Style Matters inventories were a huge success in class. My students were very fascinated by their results both in private and public settings....

A very useful instrument. Concise, well organized, with easy to follow instructions. Interpretation is clear, simple, and specific. The helpful "Hot Tips for Working with Styles of Others" reflect the competence and experience of the author. I am eager to use [this instrument] in my work as a consultant and teacher.

An excellent tool! A thorough presentation that can be used by people from all cultures. Asks the right questions, deals with the important reality that people react differently to conflicts in the beginning than later when they intensify. The reflections and discussion section is really well done. The suggestions are practical, and allow participants to go deeper into the analysis.

Optimize for learning

Train with tools designed by trainers and optimized for learning. Direct attention beyond numbers to core strengths, opportunities for growth, and strategic choices.

Prepare for diversity

Build conflict resolution skills in settings where managing differences is challenging. Use training tools with built-in cultural flexibility. Provide opportunities to discuss how diverse backgrounds shape habits in conflict.

Be practical

Ground learning in affirmation of existing strength. Give clear, simple feedback on areas of concern. Provide detailed suggestions for options to improve.

Be stress aware

Calm≠Storm. Recognize response to conflict as dynamic and not single state.  Give tools to manage the Storm Shift.

Be where they are

Provide multi-platform delivery of training. Support groups and teams scattered physically and working together online. Use time-saving web tools to facilitate learning for individuals, teams, or groups, in face-to-face workshops or online.

Work with limits

Price training materials in reach of all who need them. Reduce prep, coordination, and delivery time with trainer-friendly online tools. Deliver rich learning, on location or online, in less time, with less travel.

Take a long view

Expand the window of learning and support reflection before, during, and after workshops. Set up rich discussion in pairs, small groups, and large groups. Followup with resources for continued growth.  Facilitate journeys, not events.
