Consulting
Creative, Productive and Cooperative

No Bullshit Communication is a practical, practicable, and, pretty damn fun way to learn the very concrete arts of exquisite collaboration

When people feel part of something meaningful and important, when they feel connected to a community, and when they trust that they are valued and respected, then they perform at their peak

THEIR CAPACITY
for creativity expands

THEIR LOYALTY
to the organization deepens

EVERYBODY WINS
Clients. Profits. People. Teams.

The problem is that very few of us have been well educated in the complementary arts of Candor and Active Listening as the right and left hand of collaboration

These two skills are not only essential to high functioning teams, but they are incredibly trainable.

Whether you want to take your organization’s communication culture from horrible to good or from great to awesome, we have a training for you that will not only educate your people on skills, but provide experiences that will build trust and connect them more authentically to one another.

THE
SMOOTHIE TEST

When I was consulting for Zappos I was tasked with identifying some of the core communication breakdowns in the system that were leading to inefficiency and conflict.

THE
SMOOTHIE TEST

When I was consulting for Zappos I was tasked with identifying some of the core communication breakdowns in the system that were leading to inefficiency and conflict.

I would make sure to do one thing before any meeting I had with one of the leads.

You see, every morning I make myself a potent green smoothie: a banana, frozen blueberries, some green superfoods, maca, collagen, MCT oil, raw eggs, and a dash of maple syrup for flavor. Just add water! And each morning before I would go into a meeting with one of the managers, I would make sure and leave a little green stain of smoothie on my nose with the rim of my Mason jar.

Basically, I would walk into that meeting

knowing that I had shit on my face

And regardless of what that person told me about what was happening in their team, I could tell a lot more about them by whether or not they pointed out the shit on my face.

I highly recommend this little test

to anyone interviewing candidates for an important leadership role.

Because at the end of the day you want to work with people who you can trust to tell you when you have shit on your face

WITHOUT
undue hesitation

WITHOUT
enjoying it too much

WITHOUT
laughing behind your back later

Courageous honesty is a really precious commodity

It is one of the cornerstones of healthy, high-performing teams
and an indicator species of healthy culture in an organization.

And it is highly teachable!

Guess what?

People perform better when they are happy and healthy.

Isn’t that weird?

Happy people are more creative, productive, and cooperative. They show up to work more often. They get sick less often. And they are much more likely to keep the job they have.

Honest, Clear, and Empathetic communication is essential in retaining good employees and building a culture of collaboration and connection.
