    Frequently Asked Questions

    How quickly can we start?

    Most partnerships launch within 2 to 3 weeks of signing. The diagnostic begins immediately, so you start seeing value right away. We coordinate with your HR and leadership team to minimize disruption and maximize engagement from day one.

    Can we customize the package?

    Absolutely. Every engagement is tailored to your organization. These tier frameworks are starting points. During your initial conversation with Megan, we assess your specific needs, culture, and conflict patterns, then design a custom engagement that fits your timeline and budget.

    Is training delivered virtually or onsite?

    Both. We offer hybrid delivery. Keynotes and intensive workshops are typically delivered onsite for maximum impact. Training series and coaching sessions can be virtual, which often works better for distributed teams. We'll work with you to find the delivery model that works for your organization.

    What industries do you work with?

    We have partnered with organizations in healthcare, financial services, technology, government, education, manufacturing, and more. Conflict patterns are universal. Whether you're a hospital managing difficult physicians or a tech company dealing with high-stakes team dynamics, our frameworks apply across industries and organizational structures.

    What if we are not sure which tier is right?

    Start with a conversation. Megan will help you identify the right scope based on your organization's size, complexity, and current state of conflict. She'll ask the right questions to understand where you are and where you want to go, then recommend the tier that makes the most sense for your situation.

    Can we start with a keynote before committing to a partnership?

    Yes. Many organizations begin with "The 5% Problem" keynote and move into a partnership after seeing the impact on their leadership team. This is a low-risk way to experience HCI's frameworks firsthand. We can discuss this during your initial conversation with Megan.

    Ready to Stop Managing Conflict and Start Preventing It?
