Bullsh*t Prevention -The Workshop!

We are enjoying doing workshops with different organisations, such as the Irish national health service the HSE and Civil Servants on the platform Apolitical) on their use of bullsh*t language and how it affects them internally and externally. Getting rave reviews from participants and having a lot of fun in the process!
