AI Powered Conflict Readiness Simulator
Dental and healthcare teams are losing money every time shadow friction festers –hygienists huff, assistants ghost, doctors snap and patients feel it. That friction drives turnover- each lost dental assistant runs about $10k in hard costs and $21k in missed production.
Conflict sucks up time-roughly 2.8 hours a week per manager. Do the math! You’re looking at a 6 figure drain every quarter.
Talkola is a bite-sized, voice-enabled conflict-readiness simlulator.
Leaders rehearse those tough conversations privately in a 15 minute drills, get a confidence score, get coaching and show up ready to interact, not reactive.

Hi! I'm an attorney-turned-Ombuds who realized over 30 years of practice that many, if not most, leaders struggle with hard conversations. I knew with my background in conflict resolution, change management and organizational development, that I could solve the problem in an easy, practical way that gets results- that's Talkola! Check out my Linkedin profile if you want more.
I believe that every person deserves to feel safe, seen, heard, valued and celebrated at work. That conflict is what you make of it- and you can make it a positive experience. And, while I serve organizations, my real mission is to give you the tools to succeed at home.
