By invitation while Ryan pilots it

Start as you are.

A one-on-one workshop with Ryan Elliott Dennis, done remotely. For work, home, learning, community or something you are starting. You do not need a brand, a business idea, an audience, or AI.

Hello. Take your time here.

I for Identity · Activities 01 to 06

  2. Activity 2: Find the evidence
  3. Activity 3: Choose what holds the frame

  6. Activity 6: Choose a useful next result

A for Amplify · Activities 07 to 14

Choose what deserves more room.

Pick someone you could help and say plainly what you contribute. Make three useful things and try one small, bounded experiment. No audience needed.

  1. Activity 7: Meet someone you could help
  2. Activity 8: Listen before choosing a move
  3. Activity 9: Say what you contribute

Put your contribution into a sustainable exchange.

Shape a fair exchange, paid or not, with real costs and limits. Practice the conversation, then plan eight weeks with dates you choose.

  1. Activity 15: Learn what useful service requires
  2. Activity 16: Design a sustainable exchange
  3. Activity 17: Handle hesitation with respect
  4. Activity 18: Make the next step real
  5. Activity 19: Practice the whole encounter
  6. Activity 20: Plan eight weeks of useful practice
  7. Activity 21: Present the frame you can use

Three ways to take part.

Choose one now and switch whenever you like. Switching never starts you over.

Live with Ryan

Meet Ryan by video. Talk, type, or keep your camera off. Ryan can write up what you said, and you check it before it goes in your answers.

On your own time

Work at your own pace, in short sittings. Ryan reads what you share once it reaches your account, and tells you when to expect a reply.

Some of each

Start on your own and finish with Ryan, or the other way round.

What it involves

The intensive route is two facilitated days of 390 minutes each, plus a lunch and two short breaks each day. The self-paced route covers the same ground at your speed. The times describe sessions with Ryan, not a finish line: take as long as you need.

Every activity ends with something useful that you approve, and any activity can also be opened on its own.

Made to fit you.

  • Type, talk it through, or dictate with your own tool.
  • Larger text, reduced motion, and a quiet mode that stills motion and sound.
  • Sound stays off unless you turn it on, and it never carries meaning.
  • The game and the companion are optional. The plain version is complete.
  • Nothing depends on color, dragging or a timer.

How accessibility is checked, and the known gaps

Hi, I’m Ryan.

I started in broadcast journalism. Now I help technology companies find the story they can prove, and tell it plainly.

By invitation, for now.

Your answers start private. Ryan never sees more than your progress, a few coaching choices and the work you choose to share. Nothing becomes public on its own. How privacy works

There is no public sign-up while Ryan pilots I AM. If he invited you, sign in.
