After reading the Art of gathering by Priya Parker we knew we had to experiment with this one. In this episode Claire talks us through how she designed and delivered a teamday for one of her teams based on the principles discussed in the book. If you need a refresher on the book first, listen to episode number 5!

Are you a first-time leader, looking to learn this new skill called leadership? Or are you a seasoned leader, wanting to be inspired and try something new and improve your leadership skills? This book is a must-read and actually a must-do. In this episode we'll discuss The Leaderlab by Tania Luna and LeeAnn Renninger (co-founders of LifeLabs Learning). They refer to this book as 'the Swiss Army Knife of skills' and we can only agree. This book will give you theoretical insights and practical tools to work on your leadership skills straight away!
