From Conflict to Connection

Team life is always complicated. The challenges we face are typically not an issues of talent, expertise or strategic alignment...our challenges come with not knowing how to talk about hard things. Do your leaders know exactly how to bring up difficult conversations, explore symptoms to get to core issues and effectively hold people accountable for new results?

  • New perspectives that make conflict approachable

  • Simple process to resolve conflict quickly

  • How to build a culture that uses conflict to build trust and accountability

Scaling Leadership in Your Organization

Every organization rises or falls on the back of its leadership. The most effective leaders are not only leading, but stimulating leadership above them, provoking leadership around them and growing leadership below them. Every leader in your organization is pressed for time and must become an expert at finding any and all opportunities to speak with potency and act with effectiveness. This keynote address will illuminate the science of finding these opportunities and behaviors to capitalize on them.

Key Topics Covered:

What we're doing matters! - A mission-minded approach that puts the meaning back into work.

Employee engagement is inextricably tied to their ability to connect everything from long-term strategy and daily tasks to personal meaning and values. In times of sprint and stress it is essential to create pockets of reflection for all employees, especially leaders, to recenter themselves in this value proposition both personally and corporately. High performing teams generate this dynamic organically. It’s natural and universal, but just be taught and championed. In this keynote address Adrian will rejuvenate this conversation and inspire the room to be ALL IN!
