Deep-Dive Trainings

Learn the science, practise the skill, leave with the tools

Highly interactive sessions, from a half day to a full day, where people do not just listen. They practise, simulate, and build new cognitive habits they can carry straight into the work.

Every session is built around your group and mixes clear science, hands-on exercises, and self-reflection. People leave with mental models and practical tools they can build into their workweek and test in the days after.

One distinction: a training teaches and builds a skill with a group. If instead you have a specific team stuck on a real problem, that is a problem-based workshop.

What a training covers

The topic comes from whichever audience you are in. Both pages list the focus areas a training can be built from:

  • Workplaces and teams — managers and new leaders, adapting to change and AI, cross-functional and international teams.
  • Universities and programmes — starting university, learning under pressure, managing uncertain research, growing into research leadership.

Topics can be combined or sequenced into a programme. Tell me the goal and I design around it.

Who attends, and how it runs

The audience is shaped to what your organisation needs, it does not have to be one fixed team. A training can run for:

  • One intact team, working through a topic together.
  • A cross-team cohort, people from different teams brought together for the session.
  • A role group, for example all team leads, or all engineers.
  • An open, opt-in group, anyone who is interested signs up.

You can suggest it for a single team or roll it out more widely. Tell me the goal and who you want in the room, and I design around it.

What participants say

"A unique and fascinating workshop, it will stand to you for life. I've used clean language and listening many times since. It makes me feel more comfortable, and I understand better what people would like or how I can help them."Product / Tech generalist, Ireland

"I really enjoyed the energy, and it was a very safe space given the group setting. Afterwards I had more intentionality about how I ask questions. The 1:1 exercises were what I enjoyed most, rehearsing with another person in a safe environment."Staff Software Engineer, Barcelona

In practice

Delivered for · Zuse School ELIZA

Cognitive load, focus and attention for researchers.

Delivered to 15 master's and PhD students at ELIZA, an AI graduate programme spanning seven universities across Germany. The training covered how cognitive load, attention and task-switching shape deep work, and how to organise the day around task types to hold energy into the afternoon.

In the retrospective, task-switching stood out as the most valuable topic: how activities compete for attention, how to make deliberate transitions, and how to start hard tasks and drop into flow faster.

Frequently asked questions

Who are these for?

Research groups, graduate schools, and teams in fast-moving organisations. Anywhere people work under real pressure.

How long is a training?

From a half day to a full day, shaped to your goals and your group.

Can we combine topics?

Yes. Topics can be mixed or sequenced into a programme, and every training is scoped to your group.

Online or in person?

Both. Online works well, and in person in Barcelona or by arrangement elsewhere.

Can people from different teams attend together?

Yes. A training can be a single intact team, a cross-team cohort, a role group such as all team leads or all engineers, or an open opt-in group. We shape the audience to the goal.

I am in L&D, how do I plan this and share it with my leadership?

Book a short call and we scope it together. I will send you a simple one-page outline, the goal, audience, format, duration, and outcomes, that you can forward to your leadership for sign-off. You choose the audience and I handle the design, delivery, and any procurement paperwork.

How do we start?

Book a short call and we will shape it together.

How do you handle sensitive company data or personal information?

All workshop data and team examples are held securely and never shared outside the room. Any pre-workshop diagnostics are fully anonymised. Psychological safety comes first, which means your intellectual property and your team's privacy are protected by standard corporate non-disclosure agreements.
