Go Beyond the Podcast
The podcast helps you discover great ideas. Coaching for Leaders Plus helps you quickly find the right ones, apply them with confidence, and continue learning each week alongside me.
Over 75% of listeners to the Coaching for Leaders podcast are managers, executives, or business owners. More than half hold graduate degrees. And a majority of listeners have purchased three or more books in the last ninety days.
But there’s one thing you likely don’t have: the right insight at the right moment.
That’s why I regularly get questions from listeners such as:
- Can you recommend the best 2-3 episodes I should listen to on delegation?
- I know you’ve talked on past episodes about handling tough questions — but I’m just looking for a simple roadmap to get started.
- I’ve been sharing the podcast episodes with my team for a while. I’d love to hear even more from some of your guests to help us go further.
That’s why I’m inviting you to join Coaching for Leaders Plus. Because the challenge isn’t finding leadership insight—it’s finding the right insight when you actually need it.

What the Experts Are Saying
Dave is the most gracious of teachers. Not only is he brilliant at teasing out insights from his guests on his acclaimed podcast, he has the rare gift of sharing insights through a combination of his wisdom and generosity. If you’re looking to go beyond the obvious, this might well be the resource you’re looking for.”
Michael Bungay Stanier
Wall Street Journal bestselling author of The Coaching Habit
“The response I got from listeners when I appeared on the Coaching for Leaders podcast was incredible. They made clear they learned not only from Dave’s and my conversation but from all of the episodes in the archive. It is a treasure trove for managers and leaders.”
Amy Gallo
Contributing editor at Harvard Business Review and author of Getting Along: How to Work with Anyone (Even Difficult People)
Dave’s insights have provided me with invaluable guidance in the most difficult challenges in my career. What impresses me the most about Dave is that even though he’s one of the leading voices on the subject, he’s always learning more from experts in the field, which makes his programs, resources, and content even more practical.”
Kwame Christian
Host of the Negotiate Anything podcast and Director of the American Negotiation Institute
Coaching for Leaders is not just valuable; it’s been critical to the success of many people I’ve talked to. They share in-depth stories about how something that they got from Dave made a turning point impact in their life or their work.”

Ask CFL
Find the Leadership Guidance You Need—Instantly
Every week, leaders ask questions like How do I hold someone accountable without damaging the relationship? or How do I earn credibility in a new leadership role? Chances are, we’ve already explored those questions somewhere in the Coaching for Leaders library.
That’s why I created Ask CFL.
Ask any leadership question in plain language and receive practical guidance drawn from fifteen years of podcast conversations and my writing. Rather than searching through hundreds of episodes yourself, Ask CFL quickly points you to the ideas most relevant to your situation.
- Which episodes should I listen to that will prepare me for a difficult conversation with an employee?
- What are the first steps I should take when inheriting leadership of a new team?
- Can you tell me what Patrick Lencioni said on the podcast about leaders needing to be the “chief reminding officer?”
You’ll also get links directly to the podcast moments and resources that can help you go deeper. Whether you’re preparing for tomorrow’s difficult conversation or thinking through a long-term leadership challenge, you’ll spend less time searching—and more time putting great ideas into practice.

Dave’s Journal
Weekly Perspective from Dave
Leadership rarely gives you an hour to think.
That’s why each week I share a concise journal entry highlighting one practical leadership idea worth carrying into your work that week.
Read it in just a few minutes—or listen instead.
Members also receive the private Dave’s Journal podcast, where I expand on each week’s journal in a conversational, fireside-style audio edition. It’s a chance to hear the thinking behind the writing while you’re driving, walking, or between meetings.
Every journal remains searchable inside your membership whenever you need to revisit an idea.

You’ve heard hundreds of guest experts interviewed on the podcast. You’ve read their books and watched their TED talks. But have you heard their discussions with real leaders who are implementing their ideas?
Here’s a past Expert Chat with Jonathan Raymond, creator of the Accountability Dial:
Once a month, our Academy and Pro members sit down with a guest expert for a conversation we call the Expert Chat. Instead of me asking the questions, members ask relevant questions on how to best utilize that expert’s wisdom in their own organization.
We’ve already talked with Jonathan Raymond on holding people accountable (see above), Michael Bungay Stanier on how to begin, Ginger Hardage on creating an unstoppable culture, Lisa Cummings on leveraging StrengthsFinder for teams, Kwame Christian on having difficult conversations, David Marquet on asking better questions – and dozens more.
Coaching for Leaders Plus includes full access to every past Expert Chat recording and session notes – plus a new recording each month as Expert Chat events are recorded.

To gift a Coaching for Leaders Plus membership to anyone, simply follow any of the “join” buttons on this page and then check the box for “Is this a gift?” at checkout. After you complete payment, we’ll ask for the name and contact of the recipient to notify them of your gift.
Team memberships are also available at a reduced rate per person. Please contact us for details on activating a membership for your team.
Will I be able to listen to the audio version of Dave’s Journal on my podcast app?

Can I share membership content with others?
While Coaching for Leaders Plus is intended for your own use, you may occasionally share emails or downloads with a colleague or friend. If they’d benefit from full access, kindly invite them to join as well.
My organization will allow me to expense my membership. Do you have a one-page overview that I can include with my receipt?
Of course. Download it here.
Does Coaching for Leaders Plus provide direct access to Dave or interaction with other members?
No, but our other memberships offer this. If you’re seeking a community of leaders for live connection and support, I recommend you consider Coaching for Leaders Pro or the Coaching for Leaders Academy.
If you are accepted for either in the next year, we’ll credit any unused time in Coaching for Leaders Plus (as it’s already included for our Academy and Pro members).

We’ll send a reminder prior to your renewal date. You’re welcome to cancel your automatic renewal anytime prior to then. Otherwise, we’ll automatically renew your membership for a new year at your existing rate.
