Session 03: How To Have The Conversations That Build Extraordinary Teams
Why what you're not saying is the most costly problem in your organisation

You already know what needs to be said.
The feedback that never quite gets delivered. The dynamic everyone can feel and nobody will name. The co-founder conversation that keeps getting postponed. The team member who needed to hear the truth six months ago and still hasn't.
So you soften it. Wrap it in cushioning until the message loses its meaning. The person walks away feeling fine. Nothing changes. The meeting ends. The real meeting happens afterwards in the corridor.
And your team watches. They see exactly how much truth is welcome here. They calibrate accordingly. They tell you what you want to hear.
Here's what that's actually costing you:

🟦 Teams that can't give honest feedback can't improve.
🟦 Leaders who can't receive feedback can't grow.
🟦 And the gap between what's being said and what's actually true gets wider every week.
But candor isn't just courage. That's what most people get wrong.
Saying the hard thing badly without skill, without precision, without care for the relationship isn't candor. It's aggression with good intentions. Real candor is a skill. Giving feedback that lands without rupturing the relationship is a skill. Receiving feedback without collapsing or defending is a skill; arguably the rarer and more valuable one.
This session is about developing both.
For: Founders, executives, and senior leaders ready to build cultures where the real conversation happens in the room; not after it.


What You'll Leave With:

A simple candor framework from Conscious Leadership — and how to apply it in real conversations

The difference between unarguable truth and below-the-line honesty — and why that distinction determines whether feedback lands or damages

The five types of withheld truth — and which one is most limiting your leadership right now

How to receive feedback in a way that signals to your entire team that honesty is safe here

✅ One specific piece of feedback you've been withholding; shaped and committed to delivering before you leave the room

An intimate Q&A with Joyce and Rachel on the feedback conversations that changed everything

A Rare & Exclusive Opportunity to Learn from One of the World’s Top Conscious Leadership Coaches - Live in Singapore 🇸🇬

Joyce Chen is flying in from the U.S. exclusively for this workshop
✨ She coaches some of the most influential business leaders and founders in the U.S. and globally.
✨ Her clients range from high-growth startup founders to Fortune 500 executives —leaders who are shaping industries and cultures.

This is a one-time opportunity to learn directly from one of the world’s top Conscious Leadership coaches.



Joyce Chen, Conscious Leadership Coach

Joyce Chen is a force of transformation—equal parts strategist, storyteller, and truth-teller. She works with high-impact executives, creative visionaries, and industry disruptors who aren’t here to play by the old rules. She partners with leaders who see what’s possible but need a powerful catalyst to bring it to life.

A former tech executive, Joyce spent decades leading in fast-paced, high-stakes environments—including as Global Head of Production at Meta. She’s worked with leaders at companies like Adobe, Apple, Airbnb, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Salesforce, and Sony, giving her a deep understanding of the challenges at the top. But she’s not just about strategy—she helps leaders rewire how they think, make decisions, and lead with radical clarity and presence.

Joyce’s coaching is a masterful mix of deep empathy and incisive challenge. She doesn’t just shift perspectives—she dismantles outdated patterns, revealing the unconscious stories that hold leaders back. Her work is about more than leadership; it’s about self-liberation. She helps clients navigate uncertainty, step into their full power, and take radical responsibility for their impact.
