As a Trainer and Facilitator, creating spaces to learn and collaborate is my Zone of Genius.

My Secret Sauce:

My style is engaging, Uplifting, and creates a highly memorable experience for all involved. My values are:

  1. Inclusion & Safety

    • I create spaces where everyone feels seen, welcomed, and like they are an active part of the conversation.

  2. Positivity & Encouragement

    • I bring infectious positivity and an enthusiasm for learning. Participants feel encouraged to participate and are celebrated when they try new things.

  3. Insight

    • I deliver powerful, enlightening, digestible insights throughout the experience, and inspire participants to bring more curiosity to themselves and their lives.

  4. Intention + Effectiveness

    • I am highly organized and diligent in the design and structure of the experiences I create. We start on time, end on time, and deliver on exactly what we set out to do.

What people say about working with me:

“In today's highly virtual world, where most of us are exhausted by the amount of time we spend on screens, it is no small feat for a group of distributed people to feel seen, heard, and motivated all at once.

Hayden facilitates exactly that.

Through leveraging his super powers of presence, compassion, and intellect, Hayden has a unique ability to ground, connect, and propel a group forward.

If you are considering hiring Hayden for a workshop or speaking engagement, do it. You (and your team or community) will be glad you did.”

- Alyssa Petersel, CEO at MyWellbeing

Our technology team had a high-impact three hour workshop that was tailored to our group, and he got everyone feeling comfortable right away. We learned more about members of our team, became radically candid, and had so much fun while learning. 

I got rave reviews from my team, stating that they felt confident and excited about public speaking. I personally felt that I had grown by leaps and bounds in a short, three hour session with Hayden.

Hayden was incredible to work with, I cannot recommend his workshops for companies enough.”

- Katy Martin, L&D Manager at HomeChef
