Based on research, the best participation rates will be usually mid-Month on a Tuesday between either 12 noon – 1pm ET or 1pm – 2pm ET. I have shared dates across 2026 where we will schedule Virtual Culture Labs.

Outlined below are the topics based on common business cycle needs for companies on a fiscal calendar, along with the date and time of each session.

2026 Leadership Mindsets & Behaviors Lab Series (Virtual)

High-impact, 60-minute interactive labs for HR and L&D leaders who shape how their organizations think, act, and perform.

Virtual only. No recordings. Limited to the first 100 registrants.

Each quarter, we host a virtual learning lab that focuses on the mindsets and behaviors most essential to organizational performance.

These sessions are designed to be fast-paced, interactive, and deeply practical, giving participants tools they can implement immediately in their teams and functions.

March 24 –12 noon – 1 pm ET

Q1 Culture Lab – Accountability: The Single Behavior That Transforms Execution

January–March | 60 Minutes | Virtual | First 100 Registrants Only

Every year starts with new goals, new priorities, and renewed energy, yet accountability is often the first thing to falter. Not because people don’t care, but because not enough time is being spent up front negotiating the request, sharing the why, and listening for commitment.

This session reframes accountability as a behavioral practice, not a performance conversation. In this Interactive Lab, participants will:

• Identify leadership habits that unintentionally create dependency or confusion
• Apply a practical accountability model to their real work environment
• Leave with a simple, repeatable tool to strengthen ownership across teams
• Learn the behavioral patterns that turn goals into sustained action

Q2 Mindset Lab – Engagement vs.Behavior: What Really Drives Performance?

April–June | 60 Minutes | Virtual | First 100 Registrants Only

Engagement surveys provide valuable sentiment, but sentiment doesn’t change performance. Behavior does.

 This session gives HR and L&D leaders clear language and tools to shift leaders from“How do people feel?” to “How are people behaving?” … and why both matter.

In this Interactive Lab, participants will:

• Learn the difference between engagement levers and Culture levers
• See why highly engaged teams can still under perform
• Get clear on how to measure the currentbehaviors in your organization that are blocking or bolstering your strategy.

Q3 Mindset Lab – Personal Symbols: How Everyday Leadership Behaviors Shape What People Believe

July–September | 60 Minutes | Virtual | First 100 Registrants Only

People watch leaders closely, especially in strategy season. What leaders prioritize, ignore, repeat, praise, question, and investtime in becomes a powerful signal that shapes how others behave.

 These are“personal symbols”, the micro-behaviors that shape belief systems.

In this Interactive Lab, participants will:

• Explore what personal symbols are and why they matter
• Identify the leadership behaviors employees interpret most
• Understand how unintentional signals create confusion or misalignment
• Practice codifying “signals we want to send” for their own leadership teams
• Leave with a framework to help leaders use symbols intentionally

Including a Practical Walk through of the 9 High-Impact Behavior Levers

October–December | 60 Minutes | Virtual | First 100 Registrants Only

During the year-end performance cycles, organizations spend most of their time rewardingoutcomes without examining how they were achieved. This creates unintended norms, some helpful, others harmful.

In this Interactive Lab, participants will:

• Evaluate whether their systems reinforce or undermine desired behaviors
• Identify common “behavior blind spots” in performance decisions
