Problems We Solve That Help Your
People Be Their Best Professional Self

Every organization encounters moments where behavior or communication creates tension, risk, or disruption. When handled correctly, these situations become opportunities for growth—not ongoing problems.

Our one-on-one sensitivity training addresses real workplace scenarios with practical tools and clear guidance, helping individuals course-correct while protecting the organization.

Are you dealing with any of these situations?

1. Legally Actionable Behavior - “Oh no, he didn’t!”

Even high-performing employees can cross professional boundaries—sometimes without realizing it. When an incident occurs, organizations must respond quickly, appropriately, and thoughtfully.

One-on-one sensitivity training provides a confidential setting for individuals to process the situation, understand expectations, and adjust behavior. The focus is corrective, educational, and designed to reduce future risk while preserving valuable talent.

2. Rude or Insensitive Behavior - “Ugh… seriously?”

Not every issue rises to the level of a legal violation, but dismissive, inappropriate, or tone-deaf behavior can still damage morale and productivity.

Sensitivity training helps individuals recognize how their words and actions affect others. Participants gain awareness, accountability, and practical tools to improve professional interactions before issues escalate.

3. Different Personalities That Clash - “I just can’t work with them…”

When similar concerns arise repeatedly around the same individual, it’s a sign that informal feedback hasn’t worked.

One-on-one sensitivity training allows employees to step back, reflect, and understand the broader impact of their behavior. The process supports lasting change by addressing patterns—not just isolated incidents.

4. Leadership Missteps Under Pressure – “That came out wrong…”

Executives and senior leaders often operate under intense pressure. In fast-paced environments, communication can miss the mark—even when intent is good.

Sensitivity training helps leaders sharpen self-awareness, improve judgment, and communicate more effectively in high-stakes situations. The result is stronger leadership presence and fewer preventable issues.

5. When Company Events Cross the Line

Corporate retreats, company travel, and holiday parties can be an important part of corporate culture and team building. But when talented people are away from home and the office, and alcohol is involved, situations can sometimes turn into “that was probably a little too much fun.”

The next day, people may be left wondering if things went too far. Rather than waiting for a complaint or issue to arise, one-on-one or group sensitivity training can help individuals and teams reflect on what happened, learn from the experience, and get ahead of potential concerns while protecting both the organization and the people involved.

What Our Clients Say

We first reached out to DB Pargman Consulting to respond to a particular situation. Our exec came back from the One-on-One training so impressed that he insisted we bring DBP back to share the program with all of our executives and managers. Now all our executives and managers have gone through the program to dive deeper and help us be our BEST!

Damita Bank

We thought it was important to do some sensitivity training so we brought in DB Pargman Consulting. Our people LOVED the training and kept asking me when they could return! We do a lot of training and I can assure you that DBP is among the most popular and most requested trainers I have put in front of my people.

Katy Medical

I have had the opportunity to bring DBP into my company to respond to a particular incident. It’s not usually a popular subject, but this program was very well received. Since then I have referred DB Pargman to many of my colleagues and peers at other companies and I am always thanked for an outstanding referral.

Kevin Technology Company

It takes a certain set of skills and abilities to sit down across from a high ranking army officer and get a message across. DBP has done this for me on more than one occasion. They have an effective ability to convey information even to some regimented and resistant personalities.

. U.S. Military

I appreciated DB Pargman’s approach and perspective – they are about building skills in a non-punitive manner. I sent an important person to sensitivity training and he was resistant at first and did not want to go, but when he came back he was very grateful for the opportunity to learn and improve his professional skill set – he actually thanked me for the opportunity and recommended that others receive the training.
