Session Title

Change! Five Fixations of Adaptive Leaders

Abstract

The world's health, climate, social, political and economic turmoil is not an anomoly. Rather, COVID and the political and social disruptions we witnessed in 2020 are mere data points on a trending disruption curve. As a leader, either you will lead change through, or be changed by, these events. It’s time to change!

Pete, in his unique story-telling approach, shares insights from real leaders facing challenges, how they worked through them, and what we can learn to improve our own leadership. He explores five key fixations (much more than mere focal points) all leaders can use to improve their effectiveness: Presence, Purpose, Perspective, Power and Practice.
