All coaching is delivered in English only. Enquiries, contracts, and the sessions themselves are in English, on every language version of this site.
Chief Executives books executive workshops: one facilitated room, a defined question, a stop or a decision the group can keep. The agency arranges the facilitator and the frame. It does not sell a multi-day programme under this name, and it does not sell a workshop as coaching.
If you need a stretch of days, that is training. If you need one seat and a confidential series, that is executive coaching.
What you are booking
A closed room. Typical length is a half day or a day. The participant list is yours. The question is written down before anyone sits. The facilitator does not write your board paper and does not brief the chair on what was said unless you agree that in writing — and even then, process, not content.
A useful workshop brief is one sentence the room can finish: a first no, a decision-rights map, a paper that is too long, a silence that is being called alignment. “We should get the team together” is not a brief. It is a calendar hold.
Facilitators are booked from Our Coaches when the room fits the roster.
When a workshop is the right door
When the work is one question, not a season. When the people who must speak can actually be in the room. When you will protect the hours from the inherited calendar. If the week cannot hold a day, the work is the calendar, not a workshop you will cancel. That judgment is in the calendar is the strategy.
A workshop is the wrong door if you want an offsite without a question, a public course, or a report the organisation can file as evidence that “development happened.” Those are different contracts. We will say so.
How it differs from the rest of the menu
Training is a designed stretch of days. A workshop is one room. A keynote is one speech; it does not facilitate the group afterwards unless you book that separately. Board advisory is one executive before a board, not a team in a horseshoe.
| Workshop | Typical trigger | What it is not |
|---|---|---|
| Decision-rights room | Two people think they own the same call | A RACI template with no fight in it |
| Stop list | The inherited week does not match the job | A brainstorm of “priorities” |
| Paper clinic | The board pack is a memoir | A ghost-written script |
| Silence in the ELT | Alignment means someone has gone quiet | A trust-fall offsite |
Enquire on the contact form. Name it as a workshop. Send the question, the group, and the date you can actually hold. Do not send the board pack in a first note. The Dubai office is in ICD Brookfield Place, DIFC; the street address is on the contact page. There is no phone number on this site.
