It’s been 36 days since my book was released!

The most surprising, common question I now get (that I love is)...

“Leanne, can you run a 2-Hour workshop for us, on how to host a 2–Hour workshop?”

The answer is…OF COURSE!

(It would be kind of weird if I said it takes me 2 days to share how to deliver a 2-Hour workshop).

I actually ran a pilot session of the 2-Hour Workshop at Andy Storch's Talent Development Think Tank conference in Sonoma, California in February.

But we cheated.

This session was actually 3 hours… In the final hour, we brought in wine and cheese, and mingled, giving everyone a chance to share their favourite Power Up activity. #careerhighlight

The 2-Hour Workshop (on how to run a 2-Hour Workshop) is industry-agnostic workshop too.

I’ve had leaders from industry sectors like Healthcare, Construction, Energy and Real Estate  reach out about hosting these… fun!

The 2-Hour Workshop (on how to run a 2-Hour Workshop) hits on all the key elements of the SPARK framework that I weave through the book, including

• ⚡Setup: We’re not just ticking boxes here; we’re crafting an experience.
• ⚡Power Up: Light up the room, set the rhythm and expectations, and start the conversation upfront. 
• ⚡Activities: Design activities aligned with the workshop’s goals, encourage active participation and let the conversation flow.
• ⚡Review: What did we learn? How will we apply it? Let’s debrief, discuss next steps.
• ⚡Keep: Who said the conversation must stop when the clock does? Follow up, provide resources, and keep the dialogue alive. And don’t forget to save those gold-star activities for next time.

Excited to say that the book has been sold across 13 countries (top sales: 64% United States, 19% United Kingdom and 17% Australia), and I'm so grateful for readers who continue to post selfies/share the love on LinkedIn. Thank you!!

A link to the book is in the comments.

p.s. If you’re after a punchy session (where you also gift each member a copy of the book) to help your leaders SPARK connections, conversations and business results, send me a msg.
