Let’s face it: professional development doesn’t have to be boring, expensive, or locked inside a PowerPoint. And team building shouldn’t involve trust falls or awkward icebreakers that make everyone wish they’d stayed home.
Enter the Uncourse — a lighthearted, thought-provoking, and ridiculously affordable way to elevate your team dynamics and invest in real leadership growth.
What’s an Uncourse?
Think of it as an “intentional book club” for people who are tired of leadership fluff and ready for real conversations. Each Uncourse includes a short, punchy guidebook centered around a juicy topic (we’ll get to those in a sec), plus a facilitator guide to spark rich, real dialogue with your team.
You simply order the number of copies you need directly from either of The CH(k)ristines (yes, with a “k” or without — we answer to both), and we ship them to your door. Each guide is designed to support multiple 15–20 minute conversations, so your team can explore the content over time — no marathon workshops, no snooze-fests, no wasted afternoons.
It’s simple. It’s scalable. And it’s smart.
Why It Works
- It’s Affordable — Around $10/person when you order direct (minimum order applies). Your budget will thank you.
- It Builds Trust — Regular guided conversations strengthen relationships and psychological safety.
- It Drives Engagement — People feel seen, heard, and invested in.
- It’s Action-Oriented — The goal is application, not just theory. Talk it out, then go live it out.
Topics That Actually Matter
We’re not just tossing jargon at you. Uncourse topics include:
- Leadershit (what NOT to do as a leader)
- EQ and Ego
- Personalities
- Generations in the Workplace
- Conflict Management
- Motivation
- Decision Making
- Leading in Crisis
- Expectations vs. Agreements
- Feedback Without Fallout
- Radical Care
- Routines vs. Rituals
- The Simple Task of Breathing
- Change Management (coming soon!)
Each one is designed to help your team have the conversations you’re too busy (or too nervous) to start from scratch. And yes, there’s humor. Yes, there’s honesty. Yes, your team will be talking about these discussions long after the meeting ends.
Professional Development = Retention Strategy
If you’re still wondering whether this kind of time is worth it, here’s a stat to chew on:
Employees who feel their employer invests in their development are 2x more likely to stay with the company.
That’s not a typo. People want to grow — and they want to know their leaders care enough to help them do it. This is a low-cost, high-impact way to show your team they matter.
Ready to Start?
Let’s make it easy.
- Contact either of The CH(K)ristines to order your copies and receive the free facilitator guide.
- Block off 20 minutes every couple of weeks.
- Let the conversations begin.
Because leadership growth doesn’t have to come with a seminar badge or a $1,500 invoice. Sometimes it just takes a good book, a bold conversation, and a willingness to dig in.
