LEARN AT LUNCH SERIES
Digital Communication Decoded.
AN 8-WEEK GROUP COACHING PROGRAM FOR NURSE LEADERSÂ
An intimate cohort experience — capped at 8 leaders — designed to fit
your lunch break and change how your team feels about following you.
Does any of this sound familiar?
You're a strong leader. You care deeply about your team. But nobody ever taught you how to lead in a world where most communication happens through a screen.
Introducing Learn at Lunch
Built on Erica Dhawan's groundbreaking research on digital body language — adapted for the specific realities of nursing leadership.
Sessions fit within your lunch break. The cohort is capped at 8 leaders. Every single week, you leave with something you can use before your next shift. This isn't a webinar. It's a structured, peer-driven learning experience designed to change how you communicate.
This program was built for you if...
You are a charge nurse, team lead, or nurse manager ready to lead with more clarity and confidence
You manage a multi-generational team and feel the friction of different communication expectations every single week
Your unit has experienced conflict, low morale, or turnover — and you suspect communication plays a role
You want to communicate more confidently with administration, directors, and your CNO
You have ever sent a message and immediately wondered if it came out wrong
You are ready to do the work — and you want a small group of peers doing it alongside you
Your 8-Week Journey
Every session follows the same rhythm: concept and framing, peer discussion, and one specific commitment.

Questions You Might Have
I'm already stretched thin. How do I commit to this?
This program is designed specifically for busy professionals. All modules are bite-sized, and the actionable templates will actually save you time in your day-to-day communication.
I'm a charge nurse, not a manager. Is this really for me?
Absolutely. Leadership happens at every level. This program provides the tools you need to effectively communicate upward, delegate to your peers, and set professional boundaries.
What if I miss a session?
Every live session is recorded and uploaded to your student portal within 24 hours. You will have lifetime access to the recordings so you can catch up on your own schedule.
Do I need to read Erica Dhawan's book?
While highly recommended as supplementary reading, it is not required. All the core concepts you need to succeed are covered comprehensively within the course modules and templates.
What makes this different from other leadership trainings?
Most trainings focus on abstract theory. We focus on digital body language, providing you with exact scripts, channel selection frameworks, and real-world tools you can use on your next shift.
Your team deserves a leader who communicates with clarity.
You deserve to feel confident in every message you send.
Learn at Lunch gives you the tools, the language, and the peer community to make that happen — in 30 to 60 minutes a week, over lunch, alongside 7 other nurse leaders who get it.
