What To Expect
Own The Room Communication Gateway Hike Abridged is a comprehensive program designed to tackle all of the essential communication skills for business and life. You’ll come away from the Hike with new levels of confidence as a speaker and a replicable framework that you can apply to any presentation, on any subject.
“I was completely absorbed in the Hike program! The speed, accountability, and exposure of the interactions spurred faster learning. I really enjoyed being paired with others so we could learn from each other's growth and insights. The optional homework in between sessions was helpful to get additional repetitions with no time pressure.”
