Conference #3

Leadership in times of transformation and crisis

What major changes will impact leadership over the next decade? What qualities do leaders need to acquire to master the growing global change and the crises ahead? How does relational and emotional intelligence in leadership strengthen the bonds across the organization? How can you successfully transform your employees into committed brand ambassadors in difficult times? In the next decade, companies worldwide - regardless of their size - will have to face massive transformations of all kinds: Transformation related to the crisis, organizational changes, increased digitization, the need to protect our planet, the demand for new work styles and new ways of consuming. The list is endless ... In these great moments of change, it is not surprising that employees and business partners feel insecure, unstable, fearful. They have to change their habits, acquire new skills, get out of their comfort zone, reorganize and don't know what will happen tomorrow with the company, their colleagues, themselves. It is then especially when times are hard that companies need not only leaders with a strong vision, but also leaders who have relationships with their employees, who serve them, who give them positive energy to move forward in difficult times, who encourage them not to give up, who hold the ship together. I have developed this conference based on hundreds of interviews with leaders to find out what qualities have helped them the most in times of crisis, challenge and transformation. I then designed this keynote to make leaders even more attentive, human, powerful and effective at times when quality leadership at all levels is most important. ----------------------------- Michaela Merk is a motivational speaker, consultant, trainer, author and teacher.
