THE PROBLEM

Managers don’t get trained for real conversations.
They get promoted… and then thrown into conflict, emotions, performance issues, and HR landmines.

Most struggle with:

  • Fear of saying the wrong thing

  • Avoiding conversations until they blow up

  • Not knowing how to respond in the moment

  • Emotional employees

  • Inconsistent communication

  • Stress, anxiety, or overwhelm

And those struggles cost companies:

  • Turnover

  • Engagement

  • Productivity

  • Culture

  • Legal risk

Things can get awkward or go sideways quickly. Convara fixes the gap no training program has touched… until now.

What is Convara?

Convara is a conversation practice room for managers.

It lets leaders rehearse real workplace conversations with:

  • realistic employee emotions

  • behavior-based coaching

  • tons of scenario variety

  • clear guardrails for compliance

It’s not a content library.
It’s not an HR chatbot.
It’s not scripts.

It’s practice — the missing piece of leadership development.

“After 25 years in HR and leadership coaching, I’ve watched great people get promoted… and immediately feel overwhelmed by tough conversations. They don’t always get practice. They don’t always get training. They don’t always get support. They just get thrown into the deep end.””
