An 8-Week Leadership Mastermind at Ethos

Great leaders don't just communicate—they communicate in ways that people remember, believe, and act upon.

Whether you're leading a business, nonprofit, church, team, or community initiative, your ability to communicate ideas clearly can determine whether people simply hear your message or become inspired to take action.

Join us for an engaging 8-week Leadership Mastermind as we explore Made to Stick by Chip Heath & Dan Heath, one of the most influential books ever written on effective communication. Together, we'll discover why some ideas are unforgettable while others are quickly forgotten, and learn practical strategies for making our own messages more compelling and impactful.

Each weekly session combines insightful discussion, practical application, and collaborative learning with other leaders who are committed to growing their influence. You'll leave with tools you can immediately apply to presentations, meetings, marketing, fundraising, teaching, leadership conversations, and vision casting.

Throughout the mastermind, you'll learn how to communicate ideas that are:

• Simple without being simplistic

• Unexpected enough to capture attention

• Concrete so people understand them

• Credible so people trust them

• Emotional so people care

• Story-driven so people remember and act

Whether you're pitching a business idea, leading a team meeting, presenting to a board, preaching a sermon, teaching a class, or casting vision for your organization, this mastermind will help you become a more confident and influential communicator.
