About this Event

Your stakeholders are human. And the way they feel matters. Real relationships aren’t built through data, reports, or KPIs. They’re built through emotion. And yet most stakeholder strategies leave emotion out of the picture entirely. This course flips the script. You’ll learn how to design emotionally connected stakeholder experiences that build trust, deepen partnerships, and unlock long-term value.

Whether your stakeholders are customers, clients, partners, funders, or internal teams. This course gives you the tools to engage with them in a more human, more impactful way.

Emotional Stakeholder Engagement Course

Focus: Design & embed emotions into your stakeholder experience strategy in a simple, practical, and deeply human way.

Approach: Customer-Centric & Relational

Benefits: Enhance customer relationships, improve stakeholder communication, and build a more empathetic organisation.

Real skills. Real tools. Real impact.

This isn’t theory you’ll forget by Monday. It’s hands-on, emotion-led development you and your teams will actually use. Here’s what every course gives you:

Tools you can use straight away

  • No filler. Just simple, practical tools you’ll use with your team from day one. Each course includes a practical online toolkit, templates, guides, worksheets, and exercises you’ll use in your real work with real people.

Skills that change how you lead

  • Build emotional awareness, lead difficult conversations, and shape culture through how people feel, not just how they behave.

A clear pathway to grow

  • Earn your ECD Certified Practitioner Badge and Ceritifcate of Pracitice. Then keep going to the Partner and Master levels as your impact grows.

Global community support

  • Join a network of generous practitioners who’ve walked this path and are applying what they’ve learned and contributing to our collective growth as a community. We share, learn, and keep growing together.

Flexible format that fits real life

  • Learn in-person or in a hybrid learning format with a blend of online and in person or remote. Go fast or slow. Go solo or join a cohort. It’s learning on you, and your team’s terms.

Why This Matters

Because learning means nothing if you can’t use it.

We’re not here to give you content to consume. We’re here to help you change how you lead.

Every part of our ECD Specialiat Courses, from the tools to the certified badge to the community, is designed to help you apply what you learn in the real world, with real people, right away.

This isn’t just professional development. It’s a shift in how you show up as a leader, coach or Partner.



What happens after your course?

Support that helps you apply what you’ve learned.

Learning doesn’t stop when the course ends. We give you the tools and backup to keep growing, experimenting, and developing your ECD practice.

  • Optional Post-Course Challenge
  • Keep the momentum going with a practical challenge tailored to your course. It’s full of small, powerful actions you can take to deepen your learning and shift behaviour in your team.
