Aligning the Story with the Chart Type
Workshop: August 12, 2026 - 12pm EST
The right chart doesn't just show your data—it makes your story impossible to miss.
You've found your message. Now the job is picking a visual that carries it. The wrong chart buries a strong story; the right one makes it land before anyone reads a single label.
And the good news: there's no single "correct" answer. One big number that stands out can be a bold headline figure or an icon array. Tracking something improving over time? A line graph does the work. You still get to be creative, with a purpose.
Join Jeff Burrow, PhD, Senior Consultant (Data Strategy), for this free, practical workshop where you'll learn how to match each type of data story to the visuals that make it crystal clear, so your charts do the arguing for you.
We'll explore questions such as:
• Is one number dramatically different from the rest?
• Is something improving over time?
• Did we reach our goal?
• How do different groups compare?
• What's most popular—and what's not?
Because great data stories deserve great visuals.

The Conversation You're Avoiding
Workshop: August 27, 2026 - 12pm EST
Avoiding the conversation doesn't protect the relationship, it usually damages it.
Every leader has one conversation they've been putting off.
Maybe it's a performance issue. Maybe it's accountability. Maybe it's addressing tension that's beginning to affect the team. Whatever it is, delaying the conversation rarely makes it easier, it usually makes the consequences bigger.
Join us for this free, practical workshop where you'll discover why difficult conversations feel so challenging, explore the hidden cost of avoidance, and identify the conversations having the greatest impact on your team.
A highlight of this session is the Leadership Conversation Profile assessment. You'll discover your natural conversation style, uncover potential blind spots, and receive personalized insights into your strengths, growth opportunities, and next steps as a leader.
We'll explore questions such as:
• Why do some conversations feel so difficult to start?
• How do I know when a conversation can no longer wait?
• What is the real cost of avoiding difficult conversations?
• What is my natural leadership conversation style?
• How can I build trust and accountability without damaging relationships?
Because the conversations you avoid today often become the challenges you manage tomorrow.

The How: Conversations That Actually Work
Workshop: September 17, 2026 - 12pm EST
Don't just learn a framework—build a plan for the conversation you've been avoiding.
Knowing you need to have the conversation is only the first step. Knowing how to have it is what creates change.
In this practical, hands-on workshop, you'll prepare every element of one real leadership conversation—from your opening statement to your questions, desired outcomes, and follow-up plan—so you leave ready to lead the conversation with confidence.
Whether you attended Workshop 1 or you're joining us for the first time, you'll walk away with practical tools you can immediately apply to your next difficult conversation.
We'll explore questions such as:
• How do I prepare before a difficult conversation?
• How can I separate facts from assumptions?
• What questions reduce defensiveness and encourage dialogue?
• How do I create shared accountability instead of assigning blame?
• What should happen after the conversation ends?
Because the best leadership conversations don't happen by chance—they happen through preparation.

Discover Your Magic: A Princess Experience
A boutique family experience where every child discovers the strengths that make them shine.
There is something magical about watching a child believe in themselves.
Not because someone told them they were perfect, but because they began to recognize the courage, kindness, creativity, and confidence that were already there.
Princess for a Day is more than a princess event. It's a thoughtfully designed family experience that combines storytelling, imagination, creativity, and strengths-based learning to help children discover what makes them uniquely wonderful.
Together, children and their grown-up will step into an enchanting morning filled with laughter, meaningful moments, and just enough fairy-tale magic to create memories that last long after the crown comes off.
Your Royal Experience Includes
✨ Meet and interact with your favourite princess
✨ Interactive storytelling and magical adventures
✨ Hands-on strengths activity and keepsake
✨ Royal refreshments and sweet treats
✨ Music, movement, and imagination
✨ Family photo opportunities
✨ A take-home Pathways Parent Guide filled with simple conversation starters and activities to continue building confidence at home
Created with Purpose
At Pathways, we believe every child deserves to know that they are brave, kind, capable, and deeply valued.
Every activity has been intentionally designed to nurture confidence, encourage self-belief, and help families continue these conversations long after the event ends.
Because the greatest magic isn't found in a crown. It's discovering the unique strengths you've carried within you all along.
Every Child Leaves Knowing...
💛 I am brave.
🌸 I am kind.
✨ I am capable.
👑 I have gifts that make me wonderfully unique.
Because that's the kind of magic that lasts a lifetime.
