Who it's for

Managers, team leads, and senior individual contributors who already know what a hard conversation is — and are done postponing them.

What you leave with

Open any hard conversation in under 20 seconds without hedging
Hold the point when someone gets defensive, silent, tearful, or angry
Say the accountability sentence out loud without softening it into nothing
Run 20 simulated conversations under increasing pressure before you run the real one
Leave with a measured readiness score, not a feeling

The four weeks

Week 1

Prepare

Know exactly what the conversation is about before you open your mouth.

A named behavior, a named impact, a named outcome, and your own triggers on paper.

Day 1Name the conversation you're avoiding
Day 2Behavior vs. character
Day 3Your conflict tendency
Day 4Trigger inventory
Day 5The outcome sentence
Day 6Power, timing, and setting
Day 7Readiness baseline

Week 2

Say It

Say the hard thing in plain language, once, without padding.

An opening, an accountability sentence, and a boundary you can deliver cold.

Day 8The 20-second opening
Day 9Cut the padding
Day 10The accountability sentence
Day 11Questions that open, questions that trap
Day 12Boundaries in one line
Day 13Empathy without avoidance
Day 14Full script, cold delivery

Week 3

Handle What Comes Back

Stay in the conversation when the other person stops cooperating.

Rehearsed responses for defensiveness, silence, anger, blame, tears, and escalation.

Day 15Defensiveness
Day 16Silence
Day 17Anger
Day 18Blame and deflection
Day 19Tears
Day 20"I'm going to HR"
Day 21The reset conversation

Week 4

Perform Under Pressure

Do it live, at rising difficulty, until it stops feeling like a performance.

Twenty simulated conversations and a readiness score you can point to.

Day 22Easy: the cooperative counterpart
Day 23Moderate: mild resistance
Day 24Moderate: your weakest dimension
Day 25Difficult: hostile counterpart
Day 26Difficult: mid-conversation surprise
Day 27Brutal: worst realistic case
Day 28Graduation: measure and schedule

Graduation

Graduation: perform under pressure

20 completed simulated conversations across Easy, Moderate, Difficult, and Brutal difficulty, plus a TACT Score of 85 or higher.

Mastery is performance-gated on purpose. Finishing the reading is not finishing the program — the score has to move.

Clear the bar and you get a verifiable completion certificate plus a shareable TACT Score progress badge — issued automatically, emailed to you, and public at its own verification link.
