Conversations Leadership Series
The Conversations Leadership Series is a dynamic, one-hour virtual session led by Mark David, featuring a leader and two of their selected team members. The series draws from Mark David’s acclaimed books, The Gifted Leader or Coaching Illustrated, as the core framework for leadership development.
During each session, Mark David asks each leader two customized questions, crafted based on the chapter of the selected book. This exchange of ideas, knowledge, and experiences among all four participants—Mark David and the three leaders—creates an engaging and insightful conversation that makes the hour fly by. The audience, which typically consists of the leader’s team or organization, benefits from a novel approach to learning that combines leadership, management, coaching, and training techniques in a holistic and organic way.
What Makes This Series Unique?
One of the standout features of the Conversations Leadership Series is its ability to build a strong, authentic connection between the leader and their team. Over the years, audiences have shared that they find the greatest value in hearing managers speak candidly about their own life experiences. This not only humanizes leadership but also fosters trust and openness.
The format is designed to be both fun and energizing for the participants, while the consistency of holding these sessions once a month over a 12-month period helps to build confidence and loyalty among the audience. The leader uses the platform to address current challenges, share insights, and discuss proactive strategies for meeting and exceeding team goals. Audience members often engage directly, contributing questions and statements that enrich the conversation in real time.
Additional Support: Preparatory Session
To ensure the conversation runs smoothly and everyone is fully prepared, a 30-minute preparatory session is held with Mark David and the three selected leaders. In this meeting, Mark reviews the chapter of the book they’ve selected, walks through the customized questions, and helps everyone feel at ease. The goal is to ensure that all participants enter the conversation with confidence and a clear understanding of the discussion points, setting the stage for an engaging, meaningful session.
Enhanced Audience Engagement
To further support the audience's experience, leaders provide copies of either The Gifted Leader or Coaching Illustrated for their team members. This allows the audience to read the relevant chapter in advance and come prepared to actively engage in the discussion during the training. The result is a highly interactive, energetic hour of learning filled with valuable insights and “lightbulb” moments that resonate long after the session ends.
In Summary
The Conversations Leadership Series is an energizing and insightful experience for leaders and their teams. It’s an hour of high-energy, interactive learning that combines leadership training with real-world experiences and actionable takeaways. This series is not just a training session; it’s a transformative opportunity for growth and connection.
