How it works

Eight sessions, at your own pace. Each one brings its deck and a guide that walks you through it. Nobody teaches it: it is self-study.

  1. Eight sessions, at your own paceYou can do the whole thing in a few evenings or spread it across the year.
  2. A method for the conversationThe MEJORA method puts it in three stages: connect, converse and close. You know where to start and how to finish.
  3. Listening and languageThe skills that hold the method up: active and empathetic listening, and the words you use.

What it asks of you

Time and honesty with yourself. Nobody is marking you — what you work on here you use afterwards with a real person.

Diploma on completing the course.

Its thesis is in the first session: the more the mentor listens and the more the young person talks, the more powerful the conversation. And its rule for starting out: trust is the antidote to fear.
