Event Description
Community leadership programs are most powerful when curriculum design intentionally aligns with how adults learn, process, and apply new information. In this highly interactive session, John Cherry, CCLP, will explore how the results of the Learning Styles Inventory — specifically David Kolb’s Learning, Thinking, Working Styles assessment — can be deeply integrated into leadership curriculum to maximize participant growth and program impact.

Drawing from the model used by Leadership Knoxville, this workshop will demonstrate how assessment data can move beyond individual awareness and become a strategic design tool. Participants will experience how learning styles inform program day structure, speaker selection, facilitation approaches, experiential components, and reflection strategies — ensuring that every element aligns with mission, purpose, objectives, and intended outcomes.

This session is not simply about understanding an assessment; it is about embedding it into the DNA of your program to create cohesive, intentional, and transformational leadership experiences.

  • Understand the framework and application of the Learning, Thinking, Working assessment.
