West Midlands Business Festival

At CAPE, we believe conversations aren’t an add-on to leadership. They are the work of leadership. They shape trust, culture and performance more than any framework ever could.

In this interactive workshop, we’ll explore how the right conversations can unlock growth of people, performance and business.

Drawing on insights from CAPE’s forthcoming book (launching in May 2026), we’ll reveal how small talk isn’t small at all when it comes to building cultures of curiosity, connection and accountability.

This session is designed for leaders and managers who want to grow without limits by strengthening their most powerful leadership skill; everyday conversations.
