The Relational Roundtable
The Relational Roundtable is a two hour facilitated conversation for 15 to 18 people, suitable for public service organisations and organisations that deliver on public good. The specific topic is tailored to the participants.
Foster ethical leadership and relational resilience
Is your organisation ready to deepen its leadership capabilities through ethical dialogue and relational understanding?
The Relational Roundtable offers a unique opportunity for your leaders to engage in a thought-provoking discussion that illuminates complex ethical and relational topics and enhances their ability to lead with compassion, courage and wisdom.
Led with grace and vulnerability by Dr Mark Crosweller, the Roundtable will transform your organisation’s leadership capability by fostering a culture of deep reflection and ethical resilience.
Today, your leaders are dealing with:
- Ethical challenges: In an increasingly complex world, leaders often face ethical dilemmas that can jeopardise organisational integrity.
- Leadership isolation: Leaders may feel isolated in their roles, lacking opportunities to explore sensitive topics in a supportive environment.
- Relational disconnects: Without open channels for vulnerable discussions, organisations risk fostering a culture of disconnection and superficial relationships.
- Manage risks and support your leaders in a safe space
- Through a guided discussion ranging over topics like compassion, integrity and the human condition, your people will come away with a profound new understanding of ethical leadership.
The Roundtable provides a supportive space for leaders to discuss and reflect on personal and professional challenges, promoting a culture of openness and trust. Your leaders will learn to apply relational ethics in their day-to-day interactions, improving team dynamics and overall organisational health.

Testimonials from past Roundtable participants
“I cannot rave enough about this session! So amazing, I got so much out of it, both from a personal leadership perspective and as regards to organisational vulnerability and resilience. Amazing presenter and content!”
“This was a standout session – ethics are not normally a consideration, typically relegated to soft skills or corporate discussions accompanying planning days, or seen as something we ‘have’ to consider, instead of something we should consider. Going into vulnerability, resilience, and ethics alongside the broad case study of disaster management, supplemented with lived experiences, and how it can apply throughout our leadership journey, was an extremely valuable exercise.”
“Great session, could have been a whole day. Could have spent more time grabbing nuggets of insight from Mark. It has been fascinating and thought-provoking; I will be using the knowledge gained to increase and expand my knowledge of self – to help me become a better leader, and more broadly, a better person.”
“Mark was an incredible speaker. His energy and leadership style are to be admired, and I felt privileged to hear his stories, both personal and professional.”
“I found Mark to be the most profound speaker over the two days. His comment about the word ‘unprecedented’ and how overused that is, was a little scary thinking about the idea of a ‘new normal’ not being accurate, as normal is continually getting worse.”
“A very insightful presentation about the importance of ethics in leadership, and a reminder that you always need to keep the people you are serving at the forefront of your mind. Also took away that the greatest measure of success is public trust and confidence, noting you cannot control the loss of lives or homes in a disaster, you can control your public messaging. Very grateful to hear Mark’s personal stories and the notion of sitting with discomfort.”
