ROBERT MOreno

BayPLS Healthcare

"I highly recommend Steve and Judy's course to anyone wanting to improve their interpersonal and communication abilities."


"Communication is key to everything we do in healthcare - and I honestly believe this has improved patient care. I think it has also improved my conversations with my colleagues. I’ve become a bit evangelical because I think it’s brilliant!" Siobhan Aris, Advanced Palliative Care Nurse


Our Services

Better Awaydays

We package awayday essentials - such as setting shared goals and having fun together - with high-level communication skills training that delivers immediate results.

Designing Better Learning 

We create systems for sharing knowledge and skills from which learners get the needle, not the haystack. Organisations see measurable behaviour change, even when tacit knowledge is involved.

Better Conversations

Our short, focussed series of live online classes builds awareness of how you can influence conversations for the better - and surprises even advanced communicators.
