HUE™ Conversations: Elevate Your Communication and Leadership Practice

HUE™ Conversations is a one-day, interactive workshop designed for leaders, facilitators, and changemakers who want to strengthen their ability to communicate across differences, engage in meaningful conversations, and move groups toward shared understanding and collective action.

In today’s complex work environments, effective leadership requires more than just making decisions—it requires listening, engaging, and guiding diverse teams through thoughtful dialogue. This foundational course equips you with the mindset and methods to do just that.


Why HUE Conversations?

At the heart of this course is the D.E.V.C.A. strategic thinking framework, which engages participants through five distinct types of thinking:

  • Data-Based Thinking – What’s happening?
  • Emotive Thinking – How are we feeling?
  • Visionary Thinking – What’s possible?
  • Critical Thinking – What could get in the way?
  • Action-Oriented Thinking – What will we do?

Together, these elements create a natural flow for group decision-making, empowering every participant to contribute meaningfully and move forward with clarity and purpose.


What You'll Learn:

  • Human Understanding and Engagement (HUE™) principles for leading effective conversations and meetings
  • How people differ (and align) in the ways they think, communicate, and make decisions
  • Practical tips and techniques to engage multiple thinking styles within a group
  • Confidence in applying the HUE™ Conversation Method to real-world situations

Who should attend?

Professionals who want to transform their communication and engagement strategies to achieve business goals, increase employee engagement, and grow as leaders - including project managers, planners, team leaders, supervisors, and consultants.

Whether you're managing a team, facilitating strategic discussions, or seeking to create more inclusive and engaging meetings, this course offers the tools and insights to elevate your communication and leadership impact.
