Real scripts you'll rehearse

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.
