Register HERE.

When leaders can’t keep pace with ongoing change, conflicts erupt, employees burn out, productivity stalls, and growth fades. HR and L&D leaders see the impact immediately: missed commitments, rework, disengagement, and attrition. To close the leadership capability gap and create a clear path forward, leaders don’t need more on their plate. They need to change how they lead with what’s already there. That means creating clarity, building alignment, and practicing simple daily and weekly habits that balance high expectations with genuine care.

Liz Wiseman, New York Times bestselling author of Multipliers: How the Best Leaders Make Everyone Smarter, and Jennifer Colosimo, former FranklinCovey President, Enterprise Division, and co-author of the forthcoming book, Expect a Lot, Care a Lot: How 6 Critical Practices Create High-Performing Teams, will share proven frameworks that equip leaders to drive engagement, unlock high performance, and sustain results by tapping into the intelligence already within their teams.

Attendees will learn how to:

  • Create clarity and alignment that reduces rework and missed commitments.
  • Build daily and weekly leadership habits that strengthen trust, engagement, and performance.
  • Lead as a “Multiplier” to unlock capability, energy, and innovation across teams.

Tuesday, June 30, 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM ET:

Presenters: James Patterson and Patrick Leddin, Ph.D.
Topic: From Disruption to Direction: Leading Teams Through Constant Change. Register HERE.

HR or L&D leaders know disruption is no longer occasional; it’s the status quo. Strategies shift overnight; AI evolves faster than decisions can be made, and transformation is constant. The real risk isn’t disruption itself, but leaders who aren’t equipped to lead through it. Leadership that lags behind the pace of change leads to conflict, burnout, slower productivity, and stalled growth. Disruption is inevitable, but leadership gaps don’t have to be.

The world’s bestselling author James Patterson and New York Times bestselling author Patrick Leddin, Ph.D., coauthors of the bestseller, Disrupt Everything and Win: Take Control of Your Future, will explore what it takes to lead through disruption, not just survive it.

Attendees will learn how to:

  • Make smarter, faster decisions by leveraging the core dynamics behind constant change.
  • Identify disruptive strengths across the team and combine complementary talents to improve collaboration and creativity.
  • Anticipate challenges, test ideas fast, and use the Disruption Loop to turn disruption into momentum.
