Equipping Your Organization for Tomorrow's Leaders
Embracing Tomorrow's Leader, Today
Research shows that increasingly CEOs are often being kept up at night by what they call the fragility of the workforce.
"Fragility of the workforce' means attracting and retaining top talent, developing the next generation of leaders, and maintaining an engaged workforce.
Only 12% of companies surveyed in this research report having confidence in the strength of their leadership bench.
Those companies who do invest in identifying and developing leaders with diverse thinking and capabilities, which is a significant quality leaders with disruptive leadership capabilities possess, report:
Being more agile to meet their business challenges
Six times more likely to engage and retain top talent
Three times more likely to be among the most top-performing organizations in the world
Five times more likely to prevent employee burnout
It’s the problem we don’t like to talk about - the elephant in the room.
Current ways of identifying, recruiting, onboarding and developing leaders are ineffective: Current approaches organizations use to identify, cultivate and embrace leaders are not relevant to attracting and retaining current leaders as well as the next generation of leaders
Lack of readiness for ongoing disruption: Organizations are not prepared to navigate ongoing disruption - leaders with disruptive leadership capabilities can help organizations successfully navigate ongoing disruption
Overlooking the kinds of leaders needed for the future: Organizations are not seeing the role, impact and value that leaders with disruptive leadership capabilities can have on the overall organization's effectiveness.
If an organization chooses not to adapt to its changing business environment and needs, then that organization will:
If you're ready to begin to identify, cultivate and embrace the kinds of leaders increasingly needed by organizations for the future, sign up for this program today.
5 years ago I began to ask if organizations were firing the leaders needed (with the leadership capabilities that would be increasingly needed) to navigate ongoing disruption.
$366 Billion is spent each year on leadership development and organizations continue to get frustrated with just 14% of organizations that ‘buy’ such leadership development perceiving it as a positive return on that investment.
I conducted over a year’s worth of research and discovered that future leaders need a range of different leadership capabilities to successfully navigate ongoing disruption. These leaders are not being recruited or developed for these capabilities and are often marginalized or fired.
I wanted to help organizations begin seeing the ‘hidden gems’ that leaders with disruptive leadership capabilities brought to those organizations - and begin to show how these kinds of leaders are being overlooked in leadership recruitment and development activities.
Through doing this, I realized that fear and traditional perceptions of what being disruptive meant have been holding organizations back from truly embracing this kind of leader.
A program like this has never before been developed and I now support organizations to see the value that leaders with disruptive leadership capabilities can bring.

I’m passionate about developing future-ready leaders.
Always have been.
I'm a global thought leader on the future of leadership who has almost 30 years of experience supporting thousands of leaders globally to develop their leadership capacity, capability and competency as part of successfully preparing for the future.
I’ve worked with almost 100 organizations across the world in over 10 different industries. During my tenure with a range of consulting firms, I was positioned as their subject matter expert for Talent Management and Leadership Development, often being brought in to speak with C-suite leaders on current and future trends, challenges, and opportunities in the future of work and leadership.
I now support organizations seeking to reinvent and regenerate the future of leadership using an evidence-based, experiential, and exploratory approach.
I’m also a best-selling author, having recently published my first book in this area which has been endorsed by over 50 of the world’s leading figures in business, leadership, and culture.

As part of supporting those who enroll in this program, I will provide a 90-minute virtual individual or group coaching session to provide coaching support for how organizations can introduce this program into their leadership identification recruitment, onboarding, and development processes.
An enterprise-level maturity model for supporting organizations to assess awareness, appetite, commitment, and readiness to embrace leaders with disruptive leadership capabilities.
