Live & Linking #69 with Gill Brabner
Episode Title: Training That Hits Different – with Gill Brabner
Description What if workplace training didn’t just tell you what to do—but showed you what it looks like in real life?
In this episode, I’m joined by Gill Brabner, founder of Resound Training, forum theatre specialist, and passionate advocate for bringing more empathy, care, and action into the workplace.
Gill flips the script (literally) on leadership development—using real actors, real stories, and real conversations to help teams connect, grow, and lead better.
We dive into:
How forum theatre works—and why it’s so powerful for business learning
Why ‘talking about it’ isn’t enough (and what to do instead)
How leaders can move from theory to action with compassion at the core
Gill’s ECA model and how it’s reshaping workplace cultures
The unexpected reactions she’s had from sceptical audiences
Why drama can be a tool for clarity, not just performance
Why You Should Listen
Discover a bold, creative way to train and develop your team
Learn how empathy can be a practical leadership tool
Get inspired to rethink how your business learns, grows, and leads

Live & Linking with Ashley Leeds
As an entrepreneur, I want to explore what other business owners are doing to make money, grow, keep sane and basically get stuff done.
I teach people to use LinkedIn and also coach business owners to grow and expand.
I have a weekly live show on LinkedIn and thought that I'd share these episodes with you.
I will be doing ad hoc podcasts as I gather momentum so if there is a topic that you'd like me to cover then please let me know.
