See me next Thursday, November 2 at the NY Public Library Science, Industry, and Business branch in midtown Manhattan.
I’m honored to present at such a prestigious and storied institution.
As I’m approaching launching my podcast, Leadership and the Environment, I’ll speak on our sore need for leadership in the environment, as well as how it applies to the greatest challenge most leaders face: leading people without using authority.
Whether your greatest concern is your business, your personal or professional development, or the environment, you will enjoy the event and gain skills you can use that day.
The event is free and open to the public.

Josh Spodek is the bestselling author of Leadership Step by Step: Become the Person Others Follow. Come learn how to navigate your business’ greatest challenges (hint: it’s your relationships with people), and let him show you how to make meaningful connections and become a leader in the environment.
Making connections is critical to building a career and a life—and a major challenge. Who hasn’t gotten tongue-tied in front of an important person? Or taken a common piece of career advice and tried to network, only to give up after too many meaningless conversations? This program (a highlight of Josh’s leadership course at NYU), will teach you how to create meaningful connections with anyone: from people you’d like to know socially to strangers at networking events to high-value people outside your social circle. This program offers:
- A method you can use to create meaningful connections, consistently, reliably, and predictably.
- The chance to practice so you can use it before leaving the room.
- A fun, interactive environment.
- A method that works for anyone—shy or gregarious, old or young, student or working professional.
- A skill you can practice all your life for both professional and personal development.
