In today’s business environment, leaders at all levels — across industries, sectors and geographies — are confronted by powerful, disruptive forces that are making their jobs more challenging than ever. Simply put, the world is changing faster than the ability of leaders to transform themselves and their organizations.
Some of us are changing and adapting with the times, but many are falling behind. The primary culprit is our lack of awareness.
To face the challenge of these unsettling times, we need a new approach to living and leading. Bob Rosen and Emma-Kate Swann reveal a deeply human approach to personal change and lay out the powerful lessons and skills we need to accelerate change within ourselves and our organizations.
This session will focus on Grounded and Conscious Leadership.GROUNDED protects us from the forces of change with six roots: Physical, Emotional, Intellectual, Social, Vocational and Spiritual.
CONSCIOUS is your personal road map through transformation — to help you adapt and accelerate in this relentlessly changing world.
As one of the premier global experts on leadership and transformation, Bob Rosen, psychologist and founder of Healthy Companies joins Emma-Kate Swann, vice president, leadership and transformation of Healthy Companies to reveal a profound truth about modern-day change: The most successful people, at all levels of society, follow four powerful practices of being conscious:
- Go Deep helps you discover your inner self.
- Think Big enables you to see a world of possibilities.
- Get Real shows you how to be honest and intentional.
- Step Up empowers you to act boldly and responsibly.
