The Leadership Symposium

The Leadership Symposium was created as a space for leaders to pause, reflect, and engage in honest conversations about leadership, mindset, and navigating success with intention.

Across multiple experiences, leaders from various industries came together to explore what it truly takes to lead with clarity, confidence, and intention—without burnout.

While the symposium is not currently scheduled for a live event, this page preserves past symposium themes, sessions, and highlights for those who want to explore the foundation of this work.

Please note: Full session recordings, private discussions, and participant-only materials—including engagement activities and event resources—are not publicly available. This archive reflects the experience, not the full access.

About the Leadership Symposium

The Leadership Symposium was not designed to be another virtual leadership conference.

It was designed to be a leadership reset experience.

Each session centered on:

  • mindset transformation
  • real stories from leaders across industries
  • practical strategies for navigating growth and visibility
  • reflection on how leaders think, decide, and show up

Led by Dr. Tamekia Scott, Executive Mindset Coach and Founder of Edquity-Minded Consulting, the symposium created space for leaders to move from overthinking and pressure to clarity and intentional leadership.

Impact & Reach

  • 100+ leaders participated in the inaugural symposium

I didn’t know I needed this until I was in the room. It reminded me how important community is in leadership. The conversations weren’t surface-level. They stayed with me and continue to shape how I think and lead.

A Note from Dr. Tamekia Scott

The Leadership Symposium was created to give leaders space to hear what is often left unsaid—the internal dialogue, the pressure, the overthinking, and the quiet decisions that shape how we lead.

While this experience is not currently active, the work continues.

Leadership is not just about what you do.
It’s about how you think while you’re doing it.
