Sparking Amazing Leadership

A live session with Cate Murden × The Spark

Leadership isn’t a job title. It’s how you show up.

You don’t need a big team, a fancy title or the word ‘leader’ anywhere in your job description to lead.

Leadership happens every day.

It’s in the way you communicate. The energy you bring into a room. How you react when things go wrong. How you make decisions. How you make other people feel. And whether the people around you leave an interaction feeling ten feet tall or two inches small.

The interesting bit?

Sometimes the qualities that make us brilliant can also be the ones that trip us up.

That passion can become intensity.Confidence can become dominance.Attention to detail can become perfectionism.Empathy can make it harder to have difficult conversations.Drive can mean forgetting that not everyone operates at your speed.

So how well do you really understand the way you show up?

This is leadership with the mirror turned around.

In this lively, interactive 90-minute session, Cate Murden, Founder of PUSH, NeuroLeadership Coach and psychotherapist-in-training, will challenge you to look at yourself, your strengths and your impact a little differently.

Not through corporate buzzwords. Not through another leadership model destined to disappear into a notebook.

Through psychology, neuroscience, human behaviour and honest conversation.

You’ll explore what you are genuinely brilliant at, when those strengths can start working against you, how you behave under pressure and what the people around you need to know to get the absolute best from you.

And, perhaps most importantly, what you need from yourself to become a better leader.

Expect practical tools you can actually use, plenty of discussion and probably a few slightly uncomfortable moments of:

“Oh man. I definitely do that.”

That’s the point.

Great leadership starts with self-awareness.

Because when we understand ourselves better, we communicate better. We collaborate better. We handle pressure better. And we create environments where other people can do their best work too.

Whether you’re a founder, freelancer, manager, business owner, aspiring leader or simply someone who wants to have a more positive impact on the people around them, this session is for you.

Come curious. Come open-minded. Come prepared to challenge yourself.

You might leave as a better leader.

You’ll almost certainly leave understanding yourself, and everyone else, a little better.

90 minutes. No corporate waffle. Plenty of self-discovery.

Come and Spark some amazing leadership.
