For high performers—the driven, ambitious, need-for-achievement types.
Over 10 modules, you’ll move through the full journey of developing lasting social skills from getting to know how power imbalance is created, what human boundaries are involved in defending yourself to the strategic application of responses to turn any table to any ways.
By the end, you’ll leave with deeply ingrained social skills to navigate high stake or uncomfortable situations—practical tools you’ll carry for life, helping you get where you want to be.

combat and contact sport athletes, armed forces, mediators etc.
For them, physical conflict—or the responsibility of de-escalating it—is the highest-risk and highest-pressure situation, requires a strong grasp of human dynamics.

entrepreneurs, sole traders, start up and club owners, business leaders etc.
For them, cutting through the noise, balancing constantly conflicting interests, and distinguishing partners from predators is what makes—or breaks—their business.

talents, award-winners, A-players, lead members etc.
For them, managing the flood of comments on being different, and criticism from mediocres—while keeping haters in perspective—defines how far they go.
The social functioning course represents a unique approach to understanding and managing social and interpersonal power dynamics, build on an unprecedented integration of study disciplines that sets it apart from any existing program available out there.
Utilising resources validated by peer-reviewed journals and/or senior practitioners, the theoretical background and course structure follow psychologically informed approaches to social skill development and the ethical guidelines set by research authorities.


This course breaks down the hidden dynamics, from the subtle triggers to the overt tactics—so you’ll spot and block the pushes and pulls of others.
The result: stronger boundaries, sharper decision-making, and the skills to stay in control—no matter the context. You’ll walk out armed with defences and strategies to cut through the mess and move life forward on your terms.
Week 1
( taught module )
In this module, we zoom in on power dynamics in a smaller scale of things. You’ll explore the nature of stereotyping, a common social grouping tendency, and how it affects the way others treat you. You’ll also gain insight into the impact of being different from your cultural context and challenge outdated ideas about what ‘normal’ really means.
Week 2
( taught module )
This module introduces the core power operators on the grand scale of things and their role in challenging experiences. You’ll explore the foundations of prejudice and gain awareness of the most common form of social devaluation—and the back-and-forth game it creates between the parties. The module also covers the key rules for navigating sensitive topics and strategies for demonstrating social sensitivity effectively.
Week 3
( taught module )
This module introduces the Intrusion-Defence Boundary Model™, a four-layer individual defence framework designed to help you navigate the push and pull of everyday interactions and high-stakes negotiations. The module provides a crucial understanding of how we cross and defend boundaries in social exchanges, revealing how consistently ending up at a deficit in these situations is the main cause of burnout and financial breakdown.
Week 4
( taught module )
In this module, we deepen your understanding of the Intrusion-Defence Boundary Model™ by exploring potential responses to boundary intrusions and their consequences. You’ll also learn to experiment with moving between different levels, tailoring your responses to result you want to achieve.
Week 5
( practice module )
This module offers simple scenario-based drills to help you decode power imbalances and boundary intrusions. Using a graphic novel format, also known as a serious comic book, it translates verbal conversations into their non-verbal counterparts, helping you pick up on subtle clues and alerts.
Week 6
( practice module )
This module builds on the previous one by presenting life scenarios where the push and pull of the boundaries are subtle, and conflicts of interest are less obvious. Using the same graphic novel format for the drills as the previous module, it helps to refine your skills and sharpen your awareness of where a situation is heading.
Week 7
( practice module )
In this module, we begin practicing strategic defence responses by applying the skills developed in earlier modules. You’ll experiment with the response types introduced to achieve the result you want. Keeping the graphic novel format, the module allows you to practice fundamental strategies for keeping your boundaries intact across a variety of real-life scenarios.
Week 8
( practice module )
Building on previous practices, this module examines subtle dynamics where defences must be applied carefully due to politically or culturally sensitive contexts. It helps you understand the nuances of power games and explore the versatility of the response strategies introduced earlier.
Week 9
( practice module )
In this final practice module, we focus on prolonged and complex interactions that unfold across multiple touchpoints and contexts. You’ll practice reading from minimal cues, silences, and other subtle social signals—building an extended awareness of social dynamics.
Week 10
( quiz module )
This recap module offers a playful and engaging way to revisit the key concepts through quizzes and tests. It helps to solidify the social skills developed throughout the course. The interactive format also supports you retain knowledge longer, apply your skills confidently, and ensure you’re fully prepared to use them in real-life situations.
