On Demand Webinar: The Power of Small Moments: Inspiring Leadership Through Everyday Interactions

In this MRG webinar, our President, Tricia Naddaff, and Feena May, PhD, author of The Power of a Lollipop: A Model for Inspiring Leadership and CEO of The Inspiring Company, have an engaging conversation on how everyday interactions influence trust, motivation, and performance.

Drawing on more than 25 years of experience in high-stakes environments, Dr. May brings a unique perspective on what leadership looks like when it matters most. Few people understand leadership when it matters most more than Dr. May. In high-stakes environments where tensions are high and the stakes are real, she brings a depth of insight that is both rare and hard-won. With more than 25 years at the International Committee of the Red Cross, working both in the field and at headquarters, and two PhDs in Leadership, her perspective is grounded in experience as well as research.

Together, they explore how the everyday interactions of leaders influence trust, motivation, and performance. They also examine how leaders can become more aware of the impact they have on others, better understand what drives behavior and decision making, and apply that insight in ways that lead to more meaningful and sustainable outcomes.

Building on the idea that inspiring leadership and impact is not defined by grand gestures but by consistent, intentional behavior, this session will connect Feena’s model with MRG’s research-based perspective on leadership effectiveness and motivation.

You will learn how to:

  • Connect inspiring leadership behaviors and motivation to create more consistent and effective outcomes
  • Recognize the cumulative impact of small leadership interactions on trust and performance
  • Apply practical frameworks to increase self-awareness and intentionality as a leader

If you’re an executive coach, consultant, or leader focused on developing others, this session offers practical insight you can apply immediately.
