About the Green Path Masterclass

Learning often takes a long time to adopt because systems reinforce old behaviors. This masterclass introduces a proven framework that helps you determine keystone behaviors and implement them successfully for lasting change.

Marian Hartman, with her partner Arlo Belshee, also run the technical training company Dig Deep Roots, which is dedicated to teaching TDD and refactoring that sticks. Their success is credited to the Green Path, a novel teaching method that Marian developed over her years of experience.

Now they are co-facilitating this masterclass to provide other technical trainers and engineering managers the skills to make change that sticks.

This masterclass facilitates experientially how to teach new skills in a way that inspires real adoption and meaningful behavior change.

You will learn:
  • A method that identifies keystone (critical) behaviors that matter.
  • Tools for designing hooks, recipes, and upshifts to sustain change.
  • A framework for assessing fluency, refinement, and systemic impact.
  • A reflective recipe book for use in future work.
Why Us?

What You Will Learn

Lasting Behavior Change

Learn how to design and reinforce new habits that actually stick. You’ll shift from temporary motivation to sustainable behavior patterns that continue long after the program ends.

Fast Skill Transfer

Turn learning into action immediately. Each module helps you apply concepts in real time so your team experiences measurable progress within weeks, not months.

Application

You won’t be learning in theory. You’ll be experimenting in your real environment. The Green Path approach integrates directly into your current work, making change both practical and relevant.

Visible Team Progress

See the impact as it happens. By focusing on observable behaviors, you’ll be able to measure progress, celebrate wins, and adjust with clarity and confidence.

Sustainable Alignment

Build the rhythms and feedback loops that keep your team moving in the same direction. Alignment stops being a one-time event and becomes an ongoing capability.

Change Despite External Constraints

Create momentum within your own sphere of influence. You’ll learn how to drive meaningful progress even when broader systems, politics, or leadership aren’t yet ready to change.

How the Green Path Masterclass Works

This immersive 8-week experience equips you to lead change that actually sticks by focusing on what really matters: behavior.

Green Path Masterclass

Most change efforts fail because they focus on plans instead of people. Teams get new frameworks, new goals, and new tools. But behaviors don’t actually shift. Training feels inspiring in the moment, yet nothing changes on Monday.

The Green Path takes a different route.

In this 8-week journey, you’ll learn how to design and deliver learning that transforms behavior from the inside out. Through focused practice in micro-behaviors, change techniques, and alignment, you’ll create learning that sticks. 



Turn insight into action and intention into lasting results.

Where Traditional Change Models Struggle and How Green Path Solves It

Frame WorkChallengesGreen Path Advantages
Linear sequence (A→D→K→A→R).
Reinforcement seen as last step.
Focuses only on individuals.
Keystone behaviors drive change non-linearly.
Reinforcement baked into daily habits.
Balances individual + system mapping.
Resource-heavy, needs trained practitioners.
Risks one-size-fits-all templates.
Underestimates systemic resistance.
Lightweight, adaptive, scalable.
Customizes with local keystone behaviors.
Tackles resistance via system mapping.
Sequential & slow process.
Sustained urgency risks burnout.
Weak focus on individual adoption.
Incremental loops → not rigid steps.
Tiny wins keep momentum without fatigue.
Practice before knowledge for adoption.
