Why leave the office for this

Trust is built or lost in your most important conversations.

With employees, clients, partners and family, what people don't tell you costs more than what they do. Michael spent years teaching rapport-based interviewing techniques to investigators around the world, then turned that work into a method built for business leaders. This is a hands-on workshop, not a lecture.

Know how you actually listen

Discover your natural listening style, and the blind spots that come with it, before your next hard conversation.

Get the truth without the fight

Navigate contentious conversations and help people save face, so they share more truthful information instead of shutting down.

Commitment, not compliance

Structure coaching conversations that create real buy-in. You leave with practical tools and handouts to use at work and at home.

The afternoon

A two-hour workshop, built for this chapter.

We're at Durham Bottling Company, a short walk from downtown Durham and minutes from the city's best food. Restaurant and hotel recommendations are yours on request if you want to make an evening of it.

And who is hosting you

EO is 18,000 entrepreneurs who learn from each other, not from advice.

We're the Raleigh/Durham chapter of a global organization of business owners. Members meet monthly in small groups called forums and share real experience: what happened to them, not what they'd do in your shoes.

Chapter members run businesses generating $1MM to $100MM a year. If this invitation reached you, we think you'd fit the room.

Every ring is a relationship a member builds. That's the whole idea.

“EO has provided me with a great, trusted circle of friends. I have been in a Forum for 14 years, with primarily the same 10 guys. I attribute so much of Spanx’s success to the advice I’ve received from these brilliant business owners in the trusted, confidential EO format.”

Sara Blakely · Founder of Spanx · EO Atlanta member
