The Connection Design Lab

&Human Presents

This virtual lab space is designed for impact leaders who want to deepen their skills in meaningful engagement:

• Open the conversations people often want to have but aren’t sure how or where to begin.

• Make people feel comfortable from the start (whether you’re speaking with strangers or stakeholders).

• Create moments of real connection that groups crave but are frequently missing.

People are depleted on arrival. Conversations that matter are avoided. The old ways of bringing people together don’t quite work anymore…

If you’ve ever been in a room full of capable people and felt something was missing, you’re not alone. This lab is for leaders holding communities together through rapid change, high stakes, and growing tension. You’ll gain frameworks to open important conversations and create spaces where connection happens by design.

Three Connection Capacities You’ll Build in This Lab

Your Facilitator & Lab Guide

I'm Lia James, Founder of &Human

For years, I’ve been designing spaces where conversation does more than fill time with small talk. Rooms where teams, communities, and people in transition can move past surface-level exchange and into something more honest and generative.

Betting On Us grew out of that work. It’s a conversation card deck that helps guide conversations and make connection more intentional.

I’m thrilled to be launching our revamped conversation card deck and showing you how to create moments where everyone wants to be part of a bigger conversation.
