DIY professional training

You will find the Three training sessions here for your team to explore.  Each session has a training guide to follow and all the readings and links for the session.  It is recommended that teams allow 2 hours to work through the session.  Please note it is important to read the training guides for each session PRIOR to the meeting as they have pre-readings to o for team members.  If your team would prefer to read the attachments at the meeting, allow an extra 30 mins. 

The three sessions are:

  1. Philosophy and Proactive
