Strategies Designed To Ensure You Thrive In An Ever Changing Market

How Do I Get There From Here?

When the Old Rules No Longer Apply
How well are the solutions, experience and tools that have reliably served you in the past going to help you plan and manage your future?

Which parts of your past experience will dependably serve you well as you move forward? How will some cause you to stumble and fall?

Based on George’s latest book, How Do I Get There From Here?, this speech addresses head-on the reality that life can’t and won’t be a linear extension of what you’ve known up until now. Change is happening all around us, faster than we can comprehend or adapt. Opportunities will need to be identified and evaluated. When long term planning is no longer possible, our professional and personal futures require new tools to successfully navigate our way forward. Now is the time to start.

Tailored to your specific audience, this presentation offers practical, actionable information on how to do just that.

Incremental Planning and Savoring Uncertainty

Navigating the New Normal of Constant Change
Does your audience have the essential information and tools they need to plan incrementally, adapt readily, and seize new opportunities? It’s one thing to notice there is lots of change all around us. Understanding what is really going on and working with it effectively is something else entirely.

Based on George’s latest book, How Do I Get There From Here When The Old Rules No Longer Apply?, this speech directly addresses that what you used to create success and stability in the past may no longer work. In fact, it might stop you cold. If successful long term planning is no longer possible, what is our best alternative and how does it work? Adaptability, hand crafting our personal and professional success, as well as our organizations' success, and paying attention to the right cues are emerging keys. Becoming highly adaptable is essential. So is savoring the inevitable uncertainties of ever increasing change. Now is the time to start acquiring the important skills and useful tools you’ll need.

Tailored to your specific audience, this presentation offers practical, actionable information to accomplish exactly that.

WHAT YOU LEARN

• Why traditional planning no longer works and new strategies that will work instead.
• A fresh look at adaptability and how to create it.
• Building a realistic, incremental plan.
• New ways to savor uncertainty – one of the most common elements of our emerging future.
• How to put these new concepts and effective strategies to use in both your personal and professional lives as well as our organizations’ success.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

This audience-tailored presentation is great for:

  • Individuals and couples, especially those After 50, who want and need the important skills and insight necessary to succeed long term in our New Normal
