A workshop for construction and trade businesses

We use situations from your working day to practise asking for clarification and help.

Clarification, help and follow-up

In the workshop

  • Explain what is unclear without needing to have the solution.
  • Find the person who can answer and agree priorities.
  • Agree who follows up and what you want to try at work.

Experience from insurance

In a warranty claim

Consequential damage

In the same work

Defective construction

In insurance I was the one on the phone when builders called to ask whether the claim was covered. The answer was usually the same: we cover the consequential damage. The defective work you pay for yourselves.

Stig Magne Evju Brekken

This describes Stig’s experience of specific conversations, not a general rule about insurance coverage. The workshop starts with questions raised too late.

How I plan the workshop

I agree the content and length with your company. Before the session we agree on situations and participants. During it, managers and crews practise together. Any follow-up is agreed as needed.

Tell me about your company

Briefly describe a situation you would like to work on. After a conversation, I send a proposal with the format and price.
