“Marsha has gone where few others would dare to go with her book on model building for leading change. Marsha builds on David Kantor’s model building, which at best is transformative and at worst baffling; by blending her knowledge and experience in David’s work with insights and wisdom from other quarters, Marsha has made building a model for leading change accessible to anyone who is interested in doing this important work. You will never feel ‘on your own’ as Marsha guides you through your journey.”

THE KEY TO UNLOCKING THE ELUSIVE PROMISE OF AGILITY
Marsha Acker’s signature keynote is a game-changer for leaders and organizations ready to create lasting change.
So much of what we seek in business comes down to how we are or are not engaging in effective, skillful conversations. When we learn to be more intentional about how we invite, cultivate, participate, and facilitate conversations, we can skillfully navigate any challenge in order to produce effective outcomes.
- Recognize and navigate the four core domains of conversation
- Deepen interactions, explore problems, and engage with potential
solutions more dynamically - Make a radical difference in how your team works together andwhat outcomes they achieve
REAL change happens when we tap into the full potential of our people, so here’s the question: What if you could lead change in a way that actually works — that feels easier, more impactful, and more empowering?
