We're glad you're here!   After more than 30,000 hours designing, developing, implementing, and evaluating competency-based adult learning, we're expanding our model and scope. 

The core challenge for each one of us is to get happier--a process that involves learning, growing, and changing, which has been our tagline for a long  time.  Getting Happier can certainly encompass learning events, multimedia, experiential work, and no matter the medium, it's all about the person engaged in that endeavor. It's a book, project, and process.  We're also Sidran-authorized training providers for Risking Connection, a federally recognized evidence-informed promising practice, delivering this exciting program to agencies and on a regular schedule in multiple cities.

Think about it. 

• Someone struggling to perform in the workplace: is it "willing" or "able"?  Whichever it is would getting happier support it or be supported by it?  Absolutely.
• Top performer trying to stay on top of it:  getting happier surely motivates.
• A person returning home from combat deployment, natural disaster, or a survivor of another traumatic experience: getting happier is absolutely a key skillset in managing overwhelming experiences.

Learning, changing, and growing.  Getting Happier--through adding and perfecting skills in social, technical, or systems processes is the key. Risking Connection, literally and symbolically is the key.  Since 2006, we've been steering the ship (or given our founder's love of gardening "plowing the garden") itowards a different direction: working from a relational perspective in delivery, and from a performance-based perspective in designing programs.

When you need a speaker, facilitator or when you need a program designed from end to end, contact us.  I promise you, if it's not our expertise, we'll help you find someone whose it is. And if you are interested in reducing the impact of those overwhelming events in your environment--from corporate to church to clinical--we're now authorized providers of Sidran Institute's Risking Connection. 

We're offering more services, more skills, and more delivery methods than ever before! How can we help you today?
