Leadership Conversations

"The true spirit of conversation consists in building on another person's observation, not overturning it." Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton

Leadership Conversations are developmental conversations for leaders and members of management, project, functional, cross-functional and cross-organizational teams, sponsoring executives and HR, OD and Learning professionals or for independent learners.

Conducted by Chris Newham, one-on-one or with an intact team, in person, on the phone or on line, they are designed to support you as you increasingly take personal responsibility by developing High Bandwidth Leadership, Collaborating to Innovate, and Articulating a Vision. You identify new leadership practices to apply in the workplace following each conversation.

Individually, leaders and members learn to manage themselves in their working relationships, acquiring a deeper appreciation for the contexts in which they work and the personal alternatives they have for shaping outcomes. Together, leaders and members develop an appreciation for what each can best contribute to their collective effectiveness and strengthen the leadership culture of their team.

If you are considering a program as participant or sponsor, you can request a complementary, preliminary Leadership Conversation without further obligation.
