Content warning: communication skills for hospice care, pilot course, UK

Anyone working in #hospice care in the UK, this might be of interest: pilot courses for teams of 6 to 12 people, on how to use "Clean Language" in conversations about end-of-life care.
1 day in-person, or 2 x half a day if online. CPD certificate.
"Clean Language" is about how you can talk with people and listen to people without accidentally bringing in your own baggage when you didn't mean to.
This skill can help you reach clearer/deeper understanding of other people's worlds. And it can mean you're less likely to set off unnecessary disagreements, so that conversations go more smoothly.
Pilot aimed at South West, Yorkshire & North East. I asked Judy why those areas in particular, and she said those are areas where they're building up "clusters of expertise", but actually it could be any UK end-of-life group.
(I slightly know Judy from having been to a little community event of hers about Clean Language in healthcare. And we have colleagues in common.)

At an upcoming conference I'll be giving a lightning talk to entrepreneurial ecosystem builders on how leadership in companies can work effectively with their technical team.
For my fellow techies - I'd love to hear from you the biggest pain points and successful methods you've found for working with non-technical leadership.
I'd also love to hear from non-techies the same. What are the biggest pain points and what successful methods have you found in working with your technical team?
(I have my own thoughts ;-) But I really value hearing from the wider community!)
