Many Change professionals sit in a tsunami of meetings, multi-tasking, and disengagement. The pressure to be data-driven, invest in AI, and (to be blunt) “hurry” is only increasing. Executives feel pressure, too, commonly creating leadership voids for many mid-level managers. Change Managers feel unsupported and abandoned.
It’s not hopeless. A combination of boundaries, exploration, and habits can help us regain a sense of sanity, courage, and peace. This session shares a combination of language, metaphors, and templates to bounce off your team. This session aims to provide you with valuable options for you to fill the leadership void with whatever combination of people, tools, and habits you see fit.
During the session, participants can react to what the speaker presents, talk through some examples, and share their own ideas.
Agenda
Validating the habits and culture traits of this leadership void
Concepts and tactics to fill the leadership voids
Achieve peace in the face of skeptics
Learning Objectives
Language and symptoms of a leadership void
Templates and habits to fill the leadership void
Do your best, forget the rest | Your personal high bar is high enough
