In a world where AI and hybrid work are reshaping how we connect, Dance to Lead offers a distinctive approach to leadership development that brings humanity back to leadership. Designed by Kim Bercovitz, Ph.D, it blends behavioral science with the partnership principles of salsa dancing to help leaders and teams build trust, communicate with clarity, and collaborate with agility.
This is not a traditional talk or dance class. Dance to Lead weaves together insight and experiential learning to bring leadership dynamics to life --â and into everyday work. The result is leadership development that lasts beyond the moment, shaping how leaders show up, communicate, and collaborate.
Leadership isn't just taught - it's felt.
