Leadership Training for Managers Avoiding Difficult Conversations
Your managers avoid difficult conversations to preserve harmony.
- They say yes to everything instead of prioritising.
- They work late instead of delegating.
And your ambitious growth plans stall because middle management can’t scale.
It’s not that they lack ability. In fact, they are talented, loyal, and hardworking.
The real issue is the gap between Thai workplace culture and international leadership expectations. They haven’t been equipped through structured leadership training to bridge it.
This leadership development program is designed specifically for managers navigating international work cultures in Thailand.

FAQs
How do we measure if the leadership development program is working?
You’ll see measurable progress at three points during the 6-month leadership development journey:
- Month 1: Clear development goals tied to business needs
- Month 3: Mid-point report showing behaviour shifts
- Month 6: Impact report with data on leadership improvements and team performance changes
You’re tracking measurable leadership training outcomes throughout.
What makes this different from other leadership training programs in Thailand?
Three things:
- We’re Thailand’s only licensed Insights Discovery® partner
- The coach (Jirina) is Thai, fluent in English and is ICF-certified. She understands both cultures personally
- It’s coaching-intensive (12 one-on-one sessions), not just masterclasses and workshops.
Will this work with Thai managers who are uncomfortable with direct feedback?
Yes, because we don’t ask them to abandon Thai cultural values. We help them develop skills that work in both Thai and international contexts. The Insights Discovery® framework gives managers a non-threatening language to discuss their development without feeling criticized.
Is this available in Thai?
Yes. Our trainers and coaches are bilingual and can speak Thai, English, or switch between both depending on your preferences.
Can we do this program in 3 months instead of 6?
We don’t recommend it. Behavior change takes time and practice. Managers need to apply new skills in real situations, face challenges, get coaching support, and build confidence.
Having said that, you will get a mid-point report at the end of month 3 to review the impact of the program.
What happens after the 6-month program ends?
You will get a quantitative and qualitative impact report.Your managers will have the tools and self-awareness to continue developing independently.
Many organisations choose to offer follow-up coaching sessions (quarterly or bi-annual) to maintain momentum, but it’s not required.
How many managers should we include in the program?
You can have as many managers. We keep a healthy balance of 6-8 coachees per coach.
What if a manager leaves the company mid-program?
Payment is structured in 3 phases, so you only pay for the phases completed. If a manager leaves after Phase 1, you’ve only invested phase 1 fees.
That said, the program often increases retention because managers feel personally invested in their growth.
Is this suitable for first-time managers or only experienced leaders?
Both. The program works for new managers building foundational skills and mid-level managers who need to scale their leadership.
We adjust coaching focus based on experience level during the goal-setting phase.
Can we run this program virtually or does it have to be on-site?
Coaching sessions can be either on-site at your office, or virtually or hybrid if needed. The initial workshop and 360° feedback process work best in person.
