In today’s rapidly evolving landscape, disruption is inevitable. It’s how we respond to it that defines our success. So what if your organization didn’t just react to change, but actually embraced it as a driving force for growth?

Join us Tuesday through Thursday, Oct. 15 – 17, 2024 for Grow All In: Expanding Leadership Potential for Collective Progress, a complimentary 3-day virtual event designed to help you activate the collective leadership potential within your team.

Our research shows that leadership is a social process that benefits from shared responsibility. When teams work together with clear direction, alignment, and commitment (DAC), they become more resilient, adaptable, and equipped to achieve results they couldn’t accomplish alone.

During this event, you’ll discover how DAC can transform your organization’s ability to collaborate, communicate effectively, and cultivate a shared purpose. You’ll also gain tools to assess current leadership dynamics and strengthen your organization’s culture to thrive amid disruption. You’ll learn:

  • How leadership as a social process is key to thriving in disruptive environments
  • What it means to have direction, alignment, and commitment — and how they combine to make leadership happen
  • Practical strategies to build DAC across your team and improve both team and individual performance
  • Better ways to coordinate work within your group, so everyone’s work comes together to achieve your goals

By the end, you’ll be equipped with actionable strategies to elevate leadership at every level, helping your organization grow all in and embrace change with confidence.
