Maybe you run workshops or trainings and you want your audience to be totally engaged and excited, and to leave having actually learned what you need them to, every single time you teach.
You don’t believe that work has to be a grind… but sometimes, it can feel that way. You see enough suffering in your world of work. You don’t have time to waste. You need learning solutions that last and can be leveraged.
Maybe you’re part of a team that feels like it’s dying because things just aren’t working. The team is gridlocked, in conflict, or overwhelmed. Or a team that is flying and doing great — but you know that to keep that up, you have to get support.
I’m Lee-Anne Ragan and I believe suffering at work is OPTIONAL. I’m on a mission to transform how leaders and changemakers like you work and learn so you can create the difference in the world that’s so important to you.
I’ve seen SO many terrible workshops that were dull, dry, and downright boring, that weren’t engaging or inclusive, and that didn’t make a difference. So I created my own unique training methods, which I’ve honed over 30+ years with more than 50,000 people from more than 150 countries. I’ve worked extensively with UN agencies, the Red Cross, Embassies, and other organizations from across the globe.

You’ve got great content but you’re stumped on how to turn it into truly exceptional training.
The most effective way to share information is not traditional “talk at them until they fall asleep” training, but you wouldn’t know that from how most people teach — and you want your workshops or courses to be better than that!
In the Transformative Trainers Academy, you will learn how to design and deliver engaging, impactful workshops and courses that are engaging, effective, and actually create real change in the world. And — guess what? — you’ll actually love the process. I promise!
Powerful teaching is a direct line to powerful learning. This isn’t just life-changing, it’s world-changing.
As the leader of your team or as a team player, you’re committed to your work. It’s not just a 9-5 for you, it’s a calling. Your organization is doing great work. Or at least, it could be if you get everyone working together, not getting stuck in conflict or recycling the same old ideas over and over.
It’s not your fault! I specialize in helping organizations regain their fire, uncover hidden solutions, and leverage each team member’s strengths for maximum impact, all while we tackle the tough issues with grace and grit.
When it comes to my workshops, suffering is optional. Because the most effective training is one where everyone enjoys the process.

The trick is for the (scissor) blades to learn to work smoothly together, so as not to cut each other.
— Mary Jo Putney

The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward.
— Amelia Earhart

There will always be rocks in the road ahead of us. They will be stumbling blocks or stepping stones; it all depends on how you use them.
