“The world will change more in the next 10 years than it has in the last 100 years.”

How prepared is your team or organization to respond to rapid and disruptive change in the next 1–3 years?
Consider the impact of change on the workforce:
We work with clients who want to be proactive and learn to develop the skills and mindsets to successfully meet the challenges and the opportunities that change presents.
I am passionate about helping my clients make sense of the complexity and challenges they face. As a certified Adaptability Quotient coach, facilitator, and trainer with over 25 years experience working in both the public and private sector , I work with my clients to help them build the adaptive capacity of their teams to navigate change, improve team performance and engagement, and develop sustainable change that helps them do better work together, faster and more effectively.
In a world where there are new normals for online and in-person, meetings have transformed – or at least they should have.
For better or worse, meetings are crucial for teams to gather to exchange views, understand problems, figure out ways to overcome obstacles and innovate new solutions. But most meetings suck, and the rise of online connection has simply magnified the problem.
We need to make meetings matter and conversations count. Can you imagine feeling excited about scheduling a team meeting? How about holding meetings that participants can’t wait to attend? This doesn’t have to be a fantasy. Much needs to change, and this book shows you how.

Collaboration isn’t just about working together when things are smooth sailing; it’s about navigating rough waters as a team. Establishing guiding principles for collaboration sets the groundwork…
The World Economic Forum notes that disruption is increasing on the geopolitical, climate and technology front while trust is decreasing. They conclude “to navigate this new world, businesses will need to be increasingly adaptable and resilient.”
It’s incumbent upon leaders at all levels to build their adaptive capacity. But sending folks off to training programs to learn more skills they can add to their leadership toolkit might not be sufficient.
Sometimes change happens to you, and sometimes you invite change into your life. I recently did that when I decided to bring a sweet 9-week old puppy to my household, and it’s turning into a deep-dive personal experiment in adaptability and resilience.
Never in a million years did I have an interest in spending more than 5 seconds in cold water willingly. But when a friend invited me to join her for a community cold-dip experience, I said “Heck, I’ll try anything once!”
