“I wrote this book to bring to light the need for artful conversations. I genuinely believe leadership happens in the conversation. Face to face, in an email, or in a public forum...on the world stage, in business, in our personal lives, we have exchanged civil discourse for a dueling monologue.”
- Rose Fass
The single factor that determines success or failure on the public stage, in private interactions and in business today is the conversation. Great leaders are great communicators. They are consistent in their public and private conversations.
Experienced corporate business leader and change consultant, Rose Fass, confidently asserts that leadership is a conversation. In her new book, The Leadership Conversation, Rose Fass shows her readers how to change the conversation to change hearts and minds, and ultimately to change the outcome.
Whether you are a politician looking to bring about much needed change, a parent or family member hoping to set loved ones on the right path, or a business leader setting direction to achieve growth goals; it all happens in the conversation. Rose Fass understands, something too many leaders forget, that big bold change happens one conversation at a time.
This book, like her first book, The Chocolate Conversation: Lead Bittersweet Change, Transform your Busines, reads like a novel, is filled with wisdom and straight talk, all with humor and real life examples.

“Rose has been a trusted advisor and mentor to me for the last several years. She is uniquely gifted with deep leadership insights and an astute perspective on how organizations work. I always found her advice, grounded in integrity and with a very positive intent, to be thoughtful, insightful, pragmatic and highly actionable — in short, truly invaluable. She brings that same approach to her second book, which is a must-read for leaders in all organizations.”
