Developing thriving, high performing teams

When it matters
Our work refines how teams function in practice: how decisions are made, priorities are aligned, and culture is built and sustained. We work with leaders to develop teams where individuals feel pride, stretch and support, in environments that are energising and distinctive.
100th Monkey’s support is most valued at moments of:
-
Change: a new leader, a shift in direction, an inflection point for team members
-
Challenge: a strategic problem to solve, a collective performance or capability gap
-
Connection: making the most of face-to-face time together in a hybrid world

Courageous Conversations
Why this? Why now?
-
Damaging relationships. Your people are nervous about damaging relationships with key stakeholders (internal and external) – and so avoid having the harder conversations that need to happen
-
Feedback fears. At all levels of organisations, people struggle to give honest feedback for fear of a negative reaction. But small performance matters that aren’t nipped in the bud can quietly snowball into bigger, costlier issues
-
Directness that backfires. On the other hand, some leaders are so blunt that colleagues end up walking on eggshells, feeling defensive, and fearful of speaking up
-
Our Courageous Conversations programmes are designed to change these dynamics. Participants feel more empowered to handle high‑stakes discussions with empathy and clarity – typically reporting a ~30% jump in confidence from pre- to post-course
-
Benefits include productive dialogues with customers, a greater culture of openness, timely feedback, and early issue resolution
Details
- Pre-survey to identify live challenges – no generic role plays
- Neuroscience-led: understand brain-friendly ways of planning and engaging in conversations
- Key frameworks that stick, with exercises and practice
- Available at two levels - core (foundations) and advanced
- Optional access to highly realistic AI-powered role plays for continued learning
TESTIMONIAL
'A big impact on my ability to have difficult conversations...'
"Well prepped on our company context – and really added a lot of benefit to the situation I brought to the session. A really good learning for me was to see how to understand where others are coming from, how they might push back, and how I can be flexible in my thinking."
Senior Commercial Manager, McDonald’s
