Introduction to Dialogue and/or Timeout
In the introduction to dialogue you can get to know the basics of dialogue: directing it and adapting it to different work or group situations as well as to society.

The trainings can be tailored to your schedule, lasting only two hours or taking up to an entire day.
Other services
Broader packages that can be combined with trainings.
Dialogue advisor
Request an advisor from the Dialogue Academy to promote dialogue in your organisation. An advisor will help your organisation implement dialogue in the organisation or unit, for example by developing practices (for instance for events, encounters, participation, meetings, teamwork, client meetings) in a more dialogical direction or by supporting management in changes or by participating in creating materials. The advisor can also coach the personnel in questions relating to dialogue. This is planned together with the client and it usually also includes a Dialogue Academy training session.
Dialogue implementation package
A dialogue implementation package is a broad entity for implementing dialogue extensively in an entire unit or organisation. The implementation package is planned together with the client and the process usually lasts at least half a year and it includes both a dialogue advisor and trainings.
Crisis dialogues
You can request one of our experts to help promote dialogue in your community, organisation or societal activity in a situation with an inflamed culture of conversation.
