Hi Yury
Please could you provide some more details on the structure and flow of the session with timings and key topics covered. Please also show how you will engage the participants with the content - we are looking for sessions that are not just lecture but engaging for the audience.
Many thanks

Hi Shane,
Sorry for the late reply, here’s the outline of the session with approximate timings and my comments on details and engagement. Hope this helps.
Then I suggest a canvas for (self)coaching that can be used to help a particular challenger to get out of frustration back to productivity.
Hi Shane, so much going on atm...
I'll get back to you with details till the end of the week.
