OF THIS TOPIC
Having led over 100 innovation and transformation projects for world-class companies like Microsoft, Unilever, Virgin, and DiiO, including one that led to the most successful TV show in history, I discovered that most innovation, change, and transformation projects fail not because of a lack of ideas, investment, resolve, or resources. The root cause is outdated mindsets and cultures. There is often an excess of judgment, force, command, and control, coupled with a deficiency in genuine creativity and customer insight. Unfortunately, the little creativity present is usually misplaced or confined to brainstorms that rarely yield breakthroughs.
Consequently, the enormous energy and creativity required for successful change and innovation are often wasted due to fear, confusion, and friction. There is a lack of safety and trust, hindering the necessary risk-taking in innovation and transformation. In essence, without the right mindsets – where people are given permission to think differently, cope with uncertainty, and embrace risk – success is unlikely.
Over decades, my colleagues and I have developed powerful tools and experiential practices that build genuine innovation, transformation, and change-positive mindsets. When you provide your brief, I commit to working tirelessly to amplify your messages and elevate your ambitions.
Remaining independent as a thought leader, challenger, and aspirer, each of my keynotes is customized to meet and exceed expectations, connecting with your specific audience to unleash energy, momentum, inspiration, and traction.
During my keynote, I can share insights on building a mindset that seamlessly switches between task-oriented activities and reflection, creativity, and connection. Learn how to overcome rampant perfectionism, encouraging everyday experimentation.
Discover strategies to reframe the pain of failure and transform emotions around confusion, loss of status, and making mistakes.
Explore ways to stimulate creative thinking and foster breakthroughs without relying on outdated brainstorming techniques. Understand why curiosity is a business asset and how to institute a “go or grow” mindset.
I also delve into the typical killers and unlockers of innovation and change, providing valuable insights on unleashing people-powered transformation. Book me for your event, and let’s revolutionize your workplace together.
I saw the room go from a bit tired to very inspired. Totally engaging and fully immersive. You wouldn’t want to miss a second of it. It was powerfully supercharged right from the start.
