Explore how curiosity can sharpen leadership thinking in this science-based exploratory workshop led by Dr. Kelly Reidy. Get leaders out of autopilot!  "The Power of Curiosity for Leaders" is an interactive, science-based workshop designed to help leaders bring curiosity into everyday leadership moments—from decision-making and problem solving to conversations with their teams. Curiosity can help leaders approach challenges with fresh perspective, examine assumptions, and ask the kinds of questions that open new possibilities.  

This interactive workshop is led by Ph.D. scientist Kelly Reidy, who is likely one of the most curious people you'll ever meet.

Kelly has over ten years of experience facilitating team building events and workshops at teambuilding.com, having worked with clients such as Google, Etsy, Capital One, Charles Schwab, Western Australian Museums, and the NYC Parks Department.
