LEADERSHIP REINVENTED

HOW TO LEAD, ENGAGE & INSPIRE TODAY'S WORKFORCE FOR GREATER GROWTH 

It seems impossible, but what if embracing change could unlock limitless growth?

Leadership keynote speaker Rick Denley shares his proven Change Growth Formula to help leaders and organizations thrive in the face of uncertainty. A formula that is more important than ever in today's rapidly evolving business landscape. 

Rick addresses key areas holding back organizations from growing, their people. With over 40% of employees not fully engaged, and organizations reporting that 77% of leadership is lacking. Many of todays leaders lack the needed skills, tools, knowledge, combined with confidence to effectively lead people and teams through today’s complex challenges. 

Rick shares his 5 Step Leadership Development Plan

1. Embrace change: Recognize that change is constant, both invited and uninvited. Train your mind to be open and adaptable to navigate change successfully as a leader.

2.Prioritize people: Shift focus from processes and procedures to empowering and growing your employees. Provide career paths, reverse mentoring, and opportunities for them to pursue their passions.

3. Lead with courage and vulnerability: Show empathy, humility, and vulnerability as a leader. Build trust, hand over authority, and create an environment where people feel valued and heard.

4. Build a positive culture: Foster a culture of mutual trust, respect, inclusivity, and appreciation. Encourage collaboration and dismantle toxic, stressful and biased environments.

5. Align passion with purpose: Get to know your employees' individual passions and help align them with the overarching purpose of the company. Inspire and motivate people by connecting their work to a greater mission.
