Follow Up Skills Coaching & Consultation

Learning a new skill is just the beginning. The Ombuds Office offers individualized follow-up coaching and consultation sessions to help graduate students, staff, faculty, and leaders put workshop learning into practice. Available to individuals, groups, and leadership teams within six months of any workshop completion, these sessions are led by certified Ombuds staff and tailored to your specific context and goals.

Types of Skills Coaching We Offer

Crucial Conversations for Mastering Dialogue

Participants who complete Crucial Conversations for Mastering Dialogue receive two follow-up sessions included with their training. Led by Crucial Conversations certified Ombuds staff, these sessions give individuals, groups, and leaders dedicated time to revisit, practice, and apply high-stakes communication strategies in the context of their real workplace situations.

Conflict Dynamics Profile (CDP)

Following completion of a Conflict Dynamics Profile assessment, Ombuds staff certified in CDP will work with you to interpret your results and explore practical strategies for managing conflict responses more effectively in your day-to-day interactions.

90-minute Workshops

For participants of any of our 90-minute workshops, certified coaching staff are available for a follow-up session within six months of completion. These consultations offer a dedicated space to revisit workshop concepts, troubleshoot real situations, and continue building the skills you started developing in the session.
