This is for you if...
You need to hold someone to account at work and you’re not sure how to start.
Whether it’s addressing missed deadlines, poor performance or behaviour that’s not okay – without damaging trust or morale.
Accountability conversations have a way of stealing sleep and spiralling in our heads.
This free masterclass gives you a safe, slightly strange, surprisingly effective way to practise them – before you’re in the moment.
We’ve run something similar before… and here’s what people told us
Last time, you told us:
💬 “Loved the chance to try it out in small groups.”
💬 “The avatars were brilliant – fun and realistic.”
💬 “Seeing the demo first really helped!”
💬 “Feedback model was clear and easy to apply.”
You also told us you wanted:
⏳More time to practise
🧩Scenarios that match their real world
🔁Repeat sessions to build confidence
So, this time, we’ve:
✅Given you more time to practise with the AI avatar
✅Chosen an accountability-focused scenario that matches a real workplace situation
✅Designed the session so you can take what you learn straight back to your team
✅Kept the small group practice and live demo you loved last time
What it will cover...
Get a short burst of practical insight – and a chance to try out what you’ll actually say.
Here are a few hints and tips you’ll walk away with:
-
A simple feedback model applied to accountability – a straightforward, effective way to keep others on track without damaging trust
-
Listening skills – hearing what’s really being said (not just what you fear)
-
Staying calm – managing your mindset when conversations get uncomfortable
-
Trust building – holding people to account while keeping relationships strong
What actually happens...
In this 90-minute session, you’ll:
-
Get quick insight into why accountability conversations feel so hard – and what helps
-
Watch a live AI demo from Toby Sinclair, creator of Real Talk Studio
-
Break out into small groups to practise a case study scenario (we’ll send this in advance with helpful tips)
-
Work with a facilitator to shape the response – then watch them deliver it to the AI avatar based on your group’s input
“Breakout sessions made it less exposing and more supportive.”
This isn’t about stage fright. It’s about skill-building.
Just so you know...
🧍You won’t be put on the spot
🧠You’ll practice as a group
🗣The avatar is realistic, but it’s not magic – expect a few quirks
📝You’ll shape responses collaboratively
Why the AI avatar?
-
Because it lets you rehearse, rewind and try again – with no real-world consequences.
-
Because confidence is a mindset and this is a safe space to build it.
-
And because a slightly defensive AI avatar is surprisingly helpful prep for a real-life accountability conversation.
Who's it for?
If you’ve ever:
🧠Rehearsed a difficult talk with a team member at 3am
😬Avoided holding someone to account in case it caused drama
🤐Left a meeting wishing you’d addressed something sooner
…this is for you.
Perfect for managers, team leads, project owners and anyone ready to get better at the hard stuff.
Who's running it?
Definitely not AI!
Once again, we’re teaming up with Toby Sinclair – creator of Real Talk Studio – to bring you this unique, practical and slightly playful way to practise the accountability conversations you’ve been putting off.
Mary & Fiona – co-founders of Sticky Change, experts in leadership, behaviour and doing things differently. We’re passionate about helping people navigate conversations that matter – and this masterclass is how we’re doing it (with a little help from AI).
