The Third Conversation At Work
What conversation does your organisation need to have?
Better conversations. Different perspectives. Meaningful change.
Fern Hughes hosting The Third Conversation launch event in Bristol.
Some of the most valuable conversations are the ones we don't always make time for.
The Third Conversation at Work brings thoughtful, engaging and professionally facilitated conversations into workplaces, leadership teams, conferences and organisational events.
Through carefully chosen questions and different perspectives, we create space to listen, reflect, challenge assumptions and explore ideas that matter.
Not another presentation. A conversation worth having.
No two organisations, audiences or questions are quite the same.
Each experience is thoughtfully designed around your people, your purpose and what you'd like to explore. Whether it's a single conversation or a series of events, we'll work together to create something meaningful.
Let's talk about what you have in mind.
Every conversation is different.

Final summary of themes and possible next steps
It all starts with a question.
Every organisation is different, and the most meaningful conversations begin with understanding what matters to the people in the room. You might already have a question in mind. Or perhaps you know something needs to be discussed but aren't quite sure how to begin.
That's where we can start together.
01. We talk
We start with a conversation about your organisation, your people and what you're hoping to explore. Together, we identify the question worth asking.
02. We design
I shape the session around your audience, purpose and setting, considering how to create a welcoming, inclusive space where different perspectives can be heard.
03. We create the conversation
I facilitate the experience, guiding discussion, inviting reflection and helping people explore the question together. Afterwards, we capture the themes and insights that could inform what happens next.
