AI-AUGMENTED COMMUNICATION TRAINING
A psychologically safe space to become a more confident, clear, and compelling communicator.
WHAT THE LAB IS
New behaviors are not created through new insights. They are created through new experiences.
Athletes have the practice field. Actors have the rehearsal space.
Most of us have no space to get better at human interaction when it matters.
The Communication Dynamics Lab is that space. It is AI-augmented, in-person communication training: real people practicing real conversations in a real room, led by a conservatory-trained facilitator, from interviews and pitches to feedback and the hard conversations that decide everything. AI does not run the room. It measures what used to be invisible, so practice turns into progress you can see. The result: you get better, much, much faster.
AI-AUGMENTED COMMUNICATION
Every lab turns practice into measurable progress.
Most communication training ends when the room empties. Ours does not. Record a real two-person conversation and the CDL Listening Report gives each person an AI-augmented read of how the conversation actually went: how the airtime split, how many questions opened things up versus closed them down, how often each person reflected back what they heard, and how steadily they stayed present when it got hard. The counting is automated. The meaning-making stays human, reviewed with you by a member of the Lab team.
HONEST BY DESIGN
Every measure is labeled by how reliable it is. The airtime is an exact count. The question and reflection counts are careful reads with a margin. The 1 to 5 reads are coaching signals, not clinical scores. It is a read for growth, not a diagnosis.
RESULTS
What teams experience
Less misunderstanding, more ownership, better meetings.
01.
Clear asks, clear next steps, fewer circular conversations.
02.
People speak up sooner, sound more credible, and stop freezing when the stakes rise.
03.
Better listening and better repair, so trust builds instead of quietly eroding.
04.
WHO IS THIS FOR?
People and L&D leaders, managers and team leads, client-facing teams, and high-potential talent who need to be heard.
Built for leadership development budgets.
Field-validated
Our pilot ran for over two years at the Paul College of Business and Economics at the University of New Hampshire. The lab has been delivered at companies like BAE Systems, Red Hat, Soho House, Blockchain Capital, and Life Sciences Outsourcing.
“Forget everything you know about forced team-building, corporate-bonding, hours-long seminars...this session will actually make you a better communicator and strengthen your relationship to your coworkers in a deep, meaningful way.”

What lab participants are saying
-
"The role playing activities that we did truly made me open my eyes at the kind of listener I am. Being told that we don’t always have to respond to someone and just being there for them as they explained the situation was humbling as well."
-
"I would describe the Communication Dynamics Lab as a great opportunity to be put out of your comfort zone in order to become a better leader."
-
“I went into the training expecting for it to be a seminar styled, boring training, when it was more of an interactive learning environment that pulled you into wanting to be a part of the training, opening up freedom of topics around sensitive conversations with people.”
-
"I am a firm believer in fostering better communication and I strive to build community and comradery with my own teams, I've been through my share of bad corporate trainings. This session was unlike anything I've ever experienced. And I was so shocked at how much I had in common with my peers. Before this session I felt like I was off on my own island. But after, I have a team that I can effectively engage with in order to solve the most complex problems.”
-
"The practice conversations was super useful and something I plan to implement when I need to have another. The 'practice hard conversation' was useful, and the flipping of perspectives will help me find a better approach next time."
-
"The role-playing exercises I think really changed how I thought the training was going to go. It was eye-opening to heard from your partners point of view how you are communicating information and how they end up regurgitating it back to you in their own communication style."
