Programs

Turn Insight into Momentum

When communication breaks down, everything gets harder. Let’s build the systems that make collaboration feel effortless.

These programs are a starting point, will be custom tailored to your organization, and can be delivered through keynotes, workshop series, executive retreats and coaching, and internal resource development.  

If you’re ready to turn tension into traction, let’s talk. 

Creating an Agile Culture

Enhance productivity through empathy, cross-functional collaboration, and collaboration.

Most Agile transformations fail—not because the frameworks are flawed, but because the culture hasn’t caught up. In this keynote package, Andrea Goulet redefines agility through the lens of empathy, showing how it functions as infrastructure within resilient organizations. You’ll explore how to build the emotional and structural capacity needed to navigate change, communicate effectively, cultivate healthy teams, and collaborate without burning out.

Grounded in complexity science and real-world leadership experience, this program helps organizations operationalize empathy to improve adaptability, engagement, and delivery. If your teams are technically Agile but struggling with silos, conflict, or exhaustion, this keynote experience will give you the clarity and momentum you’ve been missing.

Collaborative Communication

Master the skills and systems behind effective communication—so your team stops spinning and starts solving.

Miscommunication isn’t just frustrating—it’s expensive. Whether it’s a missed deadline, a derailed project, or a misunderstood decision, the ripple effects of unclear messaging can stall progress across an entire organization. This program equips teams and leaders with the skills, structure, and emotional intelligence needed to communicate clearly—even when the conversation is hard, complex, or high-stakes.

Combining empathy-driven insight with practical tools, Collaborative Communication helps you reduce friction, align expectations, and accelerate problem-solving—whether you’re navigating cross-functional priorities or just trying to get a direct answer in Slack.

 

Scale without chaos

Build the internal infrastructure your growing team needs—without burning out your people or breaking what’s working.

Scaling a business is exciting—but it often comes with invisible strain. Communication starts to break down. Roles get fuzzy. People work harder just to keep up, and systems that once felt scrappy and efficient now feel chaotic and unpredictable.

Scale Without Chaos is a leadership development program designed to help you grow sustainably, not reactively. It addresses the often-overlooked emotional and operational challenges of scaling—like role confusion, bottlenecks, overwork, and decision fatigue. Through a blend of strategic frameworks and human-centered systems, Andrea equips founders, team leads, and internal change agents to build scalable structures that support clarity, trust, and real business momentum.

If your team is asking “What’s the plan?” or you’re constantly firefighting, this is your signal to slow down just long enough to build what you’ll need to go faster later.

Productive Conflict

Transform tension into progress with a conflict framework that builds trust instead of breaking teams.

Conflict isn’t the problem—how we handle it is. Too often, teams avoid hard conversations until resentment festers or jump into confrontations without the tools to de-escalate and repair. The result? Fractured relationships, stalled initiatives, and missed opportunities for growth.

Productive Conflict helps teams move beyond surface-level conflict resolution toward true systemic improvement. Grounded in Andrea’s Restore & Explore model, this program teaches leaders how to recognize different conflict states, restore psychological safety, and engage in collaborative problem-solving that strengthens—not strains—your organization.

If your team struggles with accountability, tiptoes around tough topics, or has a culture of either avoidance or aggression, this is the missing layer in your leadership toolkit.

Technical empathy

Engineer effective collaboration by understanding the science behind effective communication.

Software might run on logic, but software teams run on empathy. Without it, developers get stuck in endless misalignment loops—explaining things that aren’t landing, receiving feedback that misses the mark, and navigating decisions made without their input or understanding. The result? Frustration, delays, and a widening empathy gap between tech and business functions.

Technical Empathy equips cross-functional teams with a shared communication model that maps emotional intelligence onto technical systems. Using a reimagined version of the Shannon-Weaver model, this program helps engineers, product managers, designers, and executives identify the real root of breakdowns—and resolve them without blame.

If your organization struggles with the classic sales vs. engineering tension, constant context-switching, or the “why didn’t you just tell me?” problem, this program provides the missing protocol.

 

Leading through Change

Navigate uncertainty with empathy, clarity, and confidence—so your team feels supported, not scattered.

Change is constant—but chaos doesn’t have to be. Whether you’re scaling, restructuring, rolling out a new strategy, or just trying to stabilize after a disruptive shift, how you lead through change determines whether your team resists, complies, or engages.

Leading Through Change helps leaders address the often-overlooked emotional and operational realities of transition. Instead of relying on generic change management frameworks, this program focuses on designing communication systems that reduce fear, surface resistance early, and build trust—even when the future is still in motion.

You’ll learn how to move from vague alignment to real engagement—without burning out your people or getting lost in endless messaging cycles.

 

How are the programs structured?

Turn inspiration into implementation.

A single shot of inspiration only goes so far. What you communication systems that actually work.

That’s why I’ve developed six signature programs to help you put ideas into practice. Each program can be tailored to fit your specific context and is designed to create lasting alignment through three intentional phases. This structure ensures ideas don’t just sound good—they actually get used.

Phase 1: Spark Interest
Keynotes • Executive Retreats • STrategic Conversations

Every lasting transformation starts with a shift in thinking. Phase 1 is about sparking curiosity, building emotional readiness, and establishing a shared language that lays the foundation for change.

This phase includes high-impact offerings like:

  • Keynotes that introduce a strategic framework, name what people are feeling, and challenge stuck assumptions.

  • Executive Retreats that align leadership around the vision and uncover hidden friction points early.

  • Strategic Conversations—such as fireside chats, internal podcasts, AMAs, or facilitated lunch-and-learns—that generate buzz and make the ideas feel real and relevant across your organization.

These formats are designed to meet your team where they are—engaging both the head and the heart—so you can build buy-in from day one.

Phase 2: Dive Deeper
Workshop series • internal resource development

This phase bridges the gap between insight and execution. Through a guided six-week workshop series, your team explores the framework in context—unpacking tough dynamics, experimenting with new language, and aligning around practical ways to work better together.

Each session builds momentum without disrupting productivity—ideal for busy teams navigating scaling, modernization, or cultural transformation.

By the end of the series, we’ll co-create internal resources (like guides, templates, or shared norms) to help your team sustain what’s working and reinforce lasting change.

Phase 3: Get Personal
Advisory Sessions • Ongoing implementation Support

Sustainable change doesn’t happen in a single workshop—it happens when teams have space to ask real questions, test ideas in their daily work, and get support when things get messy.

This phase is all about access. I offer ongoing advisory sessions where leaders, team members, and cross-functional contributors can bring what’s working, what’s unclear, and what’s still getting stuck. Together, we work through real-world challenges to apply the framework in context.

Whether it’s troubleshooting communication breakdowns, supporting internal champions, or reinforcing alignment across layers of the org, this phase ensures your investment turns into lasting behavior change—on the ground, where it counts.
