Frequently Asked Questions

How does the live session run?

The masterclass is held live online and lasts 90 minutes. It combines focused teaching with practical examples and reflection exercises, and closes with a live question session so you can ask about your own situation. Joining instructions are sent by email once your place is confirmed.

What if I can't attend live?

Every attendee receives a seven-day replay after the session, so you can catch up or revisit the material in your own time. The downloadable workbook is yours to keep.

How do I find out about upcoming dates?

Upcoming dates are announced to the mailing list first, and reservations open by enquiry. The quickest route is to reserve your place through the contact form (Ruth will confirm the next available date with you directly) or to join the newsletter at the bottom of this page.

Can I book for a team?

Yes. The small-team ticket covers five places for managers from the same organisation. One ticket covers one attendee, and team purchases cover the stated number of participants. If you'd like to develop a larger group of managers together, the Leadership That Retains Talent workshop may be a better fit.

What is the ticket-plus-toolkit option?

The £79 ticket includes the Stay Conversation Toolkit alongside your place: a practical set of manager tools for understanding what encourages people to stay, so you can apply the session's approach with your own team. A discounted toolkit option is also available to attendees.

What happens after I reserve?

Reservations are currently handled by enquiry. Complete the contact form and Ruth will respond personally by email to confirm the next available date, arrange payment and send your joining instructions and workbook details.
