Work with one person: session after session, around their question.
Regular · One to oneCourseFormat ladder
Formats stand on steps: from a one-to-one meeting to work with hundreds of people. A higher step is not better than a lower one — you can work on any of them for years. Find yours and choose the next step.
One to one 1 person
- Attention for each person
- All the attention goes to one person.
- Price per person
- The highest per person, but there are few people.
- Team
- Not needed.
- The leader's voice
- It sounds in every sentence — and the person hears it just for themselves.
- What the step gives
- Here you test your approach on a live person and learn to listen.
Time to step up if
- People come back to you and bring friends.
- The same questions repeat from person to person.
- There are almost no free hours left in your week.
Too early if
- You cannot yet explain your approach in five minutes.
- After each session you are left with “I don’t know what to do with this”.
