The program

Six modules. Four hours. A career's worth of fluency.

Six live sessions on the rules nobody writes down, taught by both founders.

What we need

4 hours of employee time

Six live sessions of 45 to 60 minutes, scheduled around your onboarding calendar. Or one full-day workshop, if you'd rather do it all at once.

What we provide

6 modules on the unwritten rules

Each module is practical, specific and built on what Roz has seen work across 25 years in corporate HR and what Clinton has taught millions on television.

The six modules

Everything nobody teaches on day one.

Module 01

Professional Presence

How you show up before you say a word.

First impressions are formed in seconds and revised slowly. This module gives employees a clear, judgment-free framework for dressing and carrying themselves in a way that fits your culture without erasing who they are.

  • Making office-appropriate wardrobe choices
  • Balancing corporate culture and personal identity
  • Practical tips for building a professional wardrobe

Module 02

Beyond the Office

Client dinners, offsites and the room after the meeting.

Much of a career is decided at the table, not the desk. Employees learn how to handle meals, events and external meetings with the ease that lets the conversation, and the relationship, do the work.

  • Navigating external meetings, meals and parties
  • Mastering professional dining etiquette
  • Expanding skills and increasing employee social confidence

Module 03

Communication That Lands

Say it once. Say it clearly. Be believed.

Email, chat, meetings and the hallway all have different rules. This module sharpens tone, register and structure so that what your employees write and say reads as credible from the first line.

  • Using appropriate tone and familiarity in communications
  • Tips for writing with clarity and credibility
  • Common communication pitfalls

Module 04

Working Across

Trust, friction and collaboration with peers.

Peer relationships make or break a team. Employees learn to handle disagreement and competition directly and professionally, so small conflicts stay small and rarely reach your HR team.

  • Building trust and productive relationships with colleagues at the same organizational level
  • Handling disagreement, competition, collaboration and differing work styles
  • Resolving friction with peers without involving HR

Module 05

Managing Up

Make your manager's job easier and your own career faster.

The best early-career employees read their manager well. This module teaches how to run a one-on-one, when to escalate, how much to share and how to push back without stepping on a landmine.

  • Understanding a manager's priorities, communication style and expectations
  • Using one-on-one meetings effectively, asking for clarity and keeping managers appropriately informed
  • Disagreeing constructively with your manager

Module 06

The P.A.U.S.E.™ Method

A five-step reset for high-stakes moments.

A practical tool for the moments that matter: the tense meeting, the hard feedback, the question you did not expect. Plan. Attune. Understand. Silence. Express. It fits on an index card and works under pressure.
