Creating The Future-Focused Workforce: Strategies to Building a Team to Lead Effectively Through Uncertainty

Believe it or not, the biggest challenge in today’s marketplace is not uncertainty, it is building a team that doesn’t fear it. Your challenge as a leader is to figure out how to create a team that not only sees change as opportunity, but one that is uniquely trained to achieve results in the current marketplace, while consistently making the shifts needed to capitalize on future opportunities. Easy right? Well it’s a delicate balance, and without a team that is highly focused, yet incredibly agile you will struggle to achieve results in today’s fast-paced marketplace.

Success today is about developing the skills and confidence to make decisions in the gray areas – without all the knowledge, time or certainty that the decision you are making is right. And while many senior leaders have been comfortable leading like this, you now need leaders and front-line personnel at every level of your organization to possess these skills. In other words, you need to create a future focused workforce. A team that is highly focused to achieve your current goals, while looking to and adapting the skills needed to excel in the shifting marketplace.

In this power-packed, high-energy keynote, Meridith Elliott Powell reveals her groundbreaking research on how to develop the leaders of tomorrow – radically focused, highly agile, and strongly confident in their ability to make decisions and lead in a world that changes on a dime. This keynote has it all – energy, engagement, research, proven strategies and powerful takeaways your audience can implement immediately.

THRIVE: Turning Uncertainty To YOUR Competitive Advantage

These are unprecedented times! A marketplace where disruption is happening on steroids. One where there is more change building outside of your organization than in it. And a relentless pace of uncertainty that can radically impact your ability to grow your organization and keep your team motivated.

The only guarantee you have – is more change is coming. And if you’re not prepared – if you don’t have a plan – then research proves this level of uncertainty will negatively impact your ability to drive innovation, attract top talent and achieve bottom line results. While uncertainty can seem daunting, the truth is uncertainty has an upside – it always has an upside. In fact, it can be your greatest asset to thrive, grow and turn disruption into opportunity. But you need a plan, you need a strategy, and you need the research that shows the path you exactly how to turn disruption to opportunity.
