True transformation demands more than a new strategy deck — it requires new skills and new mindsets. Hanna Zarour's interactive workshops bridge the critical gap between theory and execution, equipping your people with tools they can put to work the very next day.
Why Train With Hanna Hawthorn Consulting?
Most training programs teach frameworks in isolation — without accounting for the human side of change. Hanna is uniquely positioned at the intersection of both worlds. As a dual-certified ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC) and a Certified SAFe Practice Consultant (SPC), she understands not only which strategic frameworks your teams need to master, but also the psychological and behavioral dynamics required to actually adopt and sustain them.
Her courses are never off-the-shelf. Every workshop is tailored to your organization's specific challenges, culture, and goals — whether you're scaling agility across the enterprise, aligning leadership around OKRs, or developing the next generation of empowered managers.

- Dual expertise: Agile frameworks and ICF-certified coaching
- Fosters psychological safety from day one
- Encourages cross-functional collaboration
- Tailored to real organizational challenges
- Practical tools usable the very next day
- No "death by PowerPoint" — ever

Leader as Coach & Modern Leadership
The most significant shift facing organizations today isn't technological — it's managerial. Leaders who operate with a "tell and direct" style consistently underperform in environments that demand creativity, speed, and psychological safety. This workshop equips leaders to make the critical pivot: from directing behavior to unlocking potential.
Through immersive coaching conversations, reflective exercises, and real-world scenarios, participants develop the practical skills to hold powerful coaching dialogues, navigate difficult conversations with confidence, and build teams that are genuinely high-performing.
What Leaders Will Master
- The coaching mindset vs. the management mindset
- Building and sustaining psychological safety
- Holding productive, difficult conversations
- Active listening and powerful questioning techniques
- Developing accountability without micromanagement
- Creating environments where teams thrive
Strategic Alignment & OKRs
Most organizations have a strategy. Far fewer have alignment. The gap between what leadership intends and what teams actually execute is where value disappears — and it's exactly the gap that a well-implemented OKR practice closes. This interactive workshop series teaches organizations how to define bold Objectives, identify the right Key Results, and create the rhythms and accountability structures that keep everyone moving in the same direction.
Define
Craft ambitious, inspiring Objectives that connect team work to organizational strategy
Align
Cascade and connect OKRs across functions so every team understands their contribution
Execute
Build check-in cadences, confidence scoring, and learning loops that sustain progress
Evolve
Reflect, score, and continuously improve how the organization sets and pursues goals
AI Training for the Modern Enterprise
Artificial Intelligence is no longer a future consideration — it is a present-day competitive advantage. Yet most organizations are leaving that advantage untapped because their teams lack the practical literacy to integrate AI tools into everyday workflows. This forward-looking training demystifies AI and puts actionable capability directly in the hands of your people.
Rather than abstract theory about large language models, participants engage with hands-on exercises using real AI tools, exploring how to accelerate productivity, automate repetitive tasks, and elevate the quality of decision-making across functions — from HR and PMO to finance and operations.
Training Outcomes
Practical AI Fluency
Hands-on experience with the tools transforming modern work
Workflow Automation
Identify and automate repetitive, low-value tasks within your team
Enhanced Decision-Making
Use AI-assisted insights to improve the speed and quality of decisions
SAFe & Business Agility Certifications
Scaling agility across a large organization is one of the most complex undertakings a business can attempt. Without structured frameworks and trained change agents, most scaling efforts stall or create more confusion than clarity. Hanna's SAFe certification training programs equip individuals and teams with the rigorous, practical knowledge needed to lead and sustain enterprise-wide agility.
SAFe Agilist (SA)
Foundation-level certification for leaders and managers. Learn to lead a Lean-Agile enterprise and apply SAFe principles to accelerate value delivery.
SAFe Scrum Master (SSM)
Equip Scrum Masters with the skills to coach Agile teams, facilitate PI planning events, and support Lean-Agile adoption at the team level.
SAFe Product Owner/Manager
Develop product professionals who can define value, manage program backlogs, and align product strategy with business outcomes at scale.
Lean Portfolio Management
Align strategy to execution at the portfolio level. Train leaders to apply Lean budgeting, establish portfolio flow, and drive strategic agility.
Learning That Actually Sticks
Passive learning doesn't change behavior. Hanna's workshops are engineered for retention, application, and lasting behavior change — not just knowledge transfer. Every session is designed to be the opposite of a traditional lecture.
Highly Interactive
Group exercises, breakout discussions, and real-time problem-solving keep energy and engagement high throughout every session.
Practical by Design
Every concept is paired with a practical exercise tied to your real organizational context — not hypothetical case studies from another industry.
Actionable Takeaways
Participants leave each session with a personal action plan and ready-to-use templates they can implement starting the next business day.
Psychological Safety First
Hanna creates an environment where it's safe to ask questions, challenge assumptions, and practice new skills without fear of judgment.
