Guest at The Ranch Workshop

SUSAN G. FRIEDMAN, PH.D. and KEN RAMIREZ PRESENT

Coaching People Effectively


August 26 - 27, 2023

*SOLD OUT*

Join Ken Ramirez and Susan G. Friedman, Ph.D., at The Ranch as they explore the challenging, yet important, skills of coaching people successfully and offering effective feedback. Working with a student, client, coworker, boss, or employee, we often struggle with how to give effective feedback and “constructive criticism.” Learn how to communicate your message clearly and in a way that yields your desired results. As a bonus, you will also learn how to ask for feedback in ways that benefit you!

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

Engage in meaningful conversations and discuss complex scenarios that will result in a better understanding of how to handle even the most difficult situations.  Practice your skills with the instructors and other workshop participants. The weekend will also include several opportunities to work with The Ranch animals; discussions and feedback practice will also occur during those sessions. 

You will:

Learn how to provide constructive and helpful feedback in a positive manner or in a way that makes feedback easier to receive.

Learn how to adapt the techniques we know and use with our animals but find difficult to use with people.

Practice offering feedback in different contexts by watching others train The Ranch animals and providing meaningful and actionable feedback.

Learn the difference between “toxic positivity” and “genuine positivity.”

Learn about exercises you can do with your clients or your working teams that make the giving and receiving of effective feedback a fluent skill.

Learn how to have difficult conversations with people who work differently than you, and how to make those conversations productive.

Learn how to build and maintain trust.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to learn how to use positive reinforcement effectively with the people in your lives and become a better coach, mentor, and teacher.

Susan G. Friedman, Ph.D. and Ken Ramirez will combine their expert training, teaching, and presentation skills to provide an immersive, hands-on Guest at The Ranch two-day workshop this August.

Participants will be split into working teams so that each person has the opportunity to train a Ranch animal while fellow students collect data.
