Note-Making Mastery Cohort launches to rave reviews!

In June of last year, I launched the first-ever Note-Making Mastery Cohort; a live, four-session course for professionals and creatives looking to get the most out of the notes they create from the content they consume. The goal? To become more consistent contributors—not just observers—to the world around them. 

Cohort 5 begins in June 2023. Whether you choose to attend the live sessions or take advantage of the session recordings, you're about to level up your note-taking in such a way that your outputs will astonish you and, more importantly, supercharge your impact at home and at work. 

Scroll down to the bottom of the page to see a list of current cohort registration options, as well as other course offerings.

Who am I?

My name is Jeff Brown. After transitioning away from a 26-year career in broadcasting, I lept into podcasting in 2013 and launched the Read to Lead Podcast, a four-time Best Business Podcast-nominated show with nearly 10MM downloads to date.

In 2014 I launched my first podcast training course, and have offered it numerous times since (often live). 

In 2019 I launched the Boss-Free Virtual Summit featuring 30+ speakers sharing their journeys on making the transition from traditional employment to working for themselves. 

In 2021, I released a traditionally published book named after my podcast and ranking as high as #3 on Amazon's Jobs & Careers list. 

And in 2022, I launched the Note-Making Mastery Cohort to rave reviews!


Why join the RTL Community?

The late Charlie "Tremendous" Jones once said...

You will be the same person in fives years as you are today, except for the people you meet and the books your read.

By joining the Read to Lead Community, you'll be able to truly level up both! 

Everyone here is passionate about personal and professional development, life-long learning, reading, and creating. 

As a member of my community you can learn how to:  

  1. build a better reading habit (through weekly updates, tips, and tricks), 
  2. take more effective and useful notes, no matter the source (via Note-Making Mastery, my new cohort)
  3. become your own boss if you desire (through the Boss-Free Virtual Summit)
  4. create, launch, grow, and monetize a podcast or other content (with my Podcast Master Class)
  5. And lots more!  

If you're passionate about any of these areas, then you've found your tribe.
