The two fundamental challenges that leaders face are “too much work” and “not enough time”. These prevent you from achieving your true potential to be a high performing leader.
This then holds you back from getting the best from your people, which then reduces the performance of your team and the organization. Chris Roebuck solves this problem by showing you how you can become human centric and high performing and make your team the same through a proven formula to Accelerate Your Success.
Amongst other things this could find you ½ a day extra time a week and put you in the top 20% of performers compared to your peers in other organizations for the rest of your career.
Chris has the experience of both delivering high performance personally and developing high performing leaders in the military, business, and government. In business, he’s worked with organizations as diverse as BASF, BD Pharmaceutical, Huawei, UAE Prime Ministers Office and the Chinese Space Programme to help their leaders become High Performing.
Employee engagement - people giving their best - is the engine of success for any organization. But the reality is most organizations are significantly underperforming on their potential to get the best from their people because their leaders simply don't understand employee engagement well enough.
The real challenge is how you can increase the number of people in your team who are engaged and giving their best by being more human centric. To achieve this, you probably need to understand employee engagement in more depth -- e.g. the difference between engaged, not engaged, and disengaged. And then how to move people to become fully engaged.
Quite simply most leaders have never been told what they need to know about employee engagement to be successful. Chris Roebuck gives you that vital information and shows you how to maximize engagement.
Chris has studied employee engagement, written articles on it, featured it in his books, and shown leaders how to improve it for many organizations such as KPMG, Tata Communications and HSBC. It works – a house construction company he worked with in two years moved the engagement score for “I would recommend this as a great place to work for friends or family” from 40% to 82%. And significant performance and financial benefits also followed.
Often even doing “business as usual” presents a challenge for most leaders as they are under pressure to deliver. Then, if change and transformation needs to happen, it not only adds to the pressure but also creates uncertainty.
To be able to deliver business as usual and successfully deliver change in uncertain environments requires leaders to think differently and to have excellent human centric leadership and management skills.
Chris Roebuck has led work on several successful major transformations in organizations as diverse as London Underground, UBS and UK National Health Service. The transformation at UBS is now a Harvard case study on successful integration and change in uncertainty. Chris was Honorary Visiting Professor of Transformational Leadership at Cass Business School 2009-22.
He enables you to create an environment of certainty amidst the uncertainty which then allows individuals and teams to be more motivated, effective, resilient and aligned to what needs to be done. Within this, Chris shows how Entrepreneurial Leadership can be developed so leaders can use change and uncertainty as an opportunity, not a threat to envision and then deliver a better future.
AI can bring significant benefits to both leaders and organizations. However, AI professionals are clear that it is not a silver bullet for success as its application must be based on optimal use cases.
The reality is that AI will never be optimized without HI (Human Intelligence).
Not only that but perhaps the greatest challenge with making AI work its effective implementation. That requires leaders and people in your organization to see the benefit which AI can bring them, to understand how it works, to be able to identify optimum use cases and then have the skills and capabilities to implement it.
Chris Roebuck has spoken to audiences on how this can be achieved and even been asked to address Chief Digital Officers on the people challenges around AI so that they can better understand their role in enabling AI to achieve its potential through people as well as tech.
“Chris was a key part of our annual conference. He was really fantastic, it was interactive, lots of new ideas, and action steps for everyone. A really great experience.”

Leaders are now focused on the use of motivational tools like incentives trips and events to increase employee knowledge and performance and give them the edge over the competition. The emphasis at leading corporate organisations on utilising these platforms to drive better employee performance has never been higher.
