CONVERSATIONS THAT SPARK CHANGE
Book-inspired peer learning to build capability, connection and culture.
Leaders and teams are increasingly disengaged, overwhelmed and under-equipped to think analytically and creatively.
To thrive, they need human connection. They need space to think, explore different perspectives and develop relationships – the foundations for stronger skills, aligned teams and real growth.
And in times of change, teams need this connection more than ever.
Our Connected Learning framework uses curated book summaries to get people talking. It helps leaders embed behaviours and shape cultures and supports everyone to take manageable but impactful actions that are pragmatic, relevant and create positive change.
READ TO LEAD® is the perfect answer for the time-poor endlessly curious amongst us. Take a room full of senior female leaders who all crave more connection and meaningful conversation, add Sarah and READ TO LEAD® and watch the ideas flow. We left feeling our brains had been exercised in a good way whilst at the same time we were wide awake with the potential of the commitments we’d made to ourselves and each other. READ TO LEAD® is training for the new era - the Age of Intelligence and we’re hooked. Can’t wait for our next session!

Managing Director, Accenture Song
READ TO LEAD® is a brilliant programme. Easily fitting into the everyday, it drives teams to develop their skills while talking and engaging with each other in ways that they rarely do during their day jobs. Learning, connecting and helping each other grow real-world skills that I saw put into action almost over night. It's the absolute antithesis to the tired old training format.

Head of Fleet & Re-Marketing, Volvo Car UK
Sarah brings a wealth of business knowledge that she leverages to facilitate deep discussions in a very human setup powered by READ TO LEAD® . We have had the pleasure of taking services of Read to Lead at many moments in the last few quarters and have come away with deepened bonds, much reflection, and action for business results. We highly recommend R2L to anyone looking for a human-led initiative in the ubiquitous digital world.

Read to Lead is an organisation combining two of my passions - reading and connection. What Sarah and the team have created truly transforms leaders, providing them with the freedom to develop in a structured, engaging journey. Furthermore, these experiences are driving true performance improvement within not just the individuals partaking, but also the organisations those individuals represent.

The learning experiences from these sessions are not just theoretical; they are practical and can be applied directly to our daily jobs. Colleagues have found the insights gained to be highly beneficial in their everyday tasks — which speaks volumes about the program’s impact.
Pawel Juraszek
Head of Finance Systems Governance, PMI
READ TO LEAD has been a really insightful and engaging experience for myself and our team. It has given us an opportunity to pause and reflect, think differently and have the kind of conversations we rarely make time for – about who we are as individuals, how we lead others, and how we want to shape the business together.
What I’ve valued most is how practical it all feels. It’s not theory, it’s about applying what we learn straight away. We’ve built confidence, trust and stronger relationships, and that’s showing up in how we work together and deliver results.

A shared learning and connection experience that sparks fresh thinking and fuels conversations.
Here’s how it works:
Learn | We help you choose a best-selling book aligned to your team’s challenges and culture. Everyone gets a 15-minute digital or audio summary to quickly soak up the key learnings – ideal for readers, non-readers, and neurodiverse alike.
Discuss | The cohort joins a focussed, interactive 90-minute peer discussion, coach-led and backed by Prosci change management expertise, exploring both ideas and real-world application.
Action | Capture one insight and one action in a Learning Log, with accountability nudges and moments of reflection. At the next session progress is shared before exploring the next book.
With each session, small actions embed new behaviours, creating a powerful compound effect that drives continuous learning and long-term impact.
