Welcome and General Session Salon ABC Lead Your Evolution Judson Laipply Sponsored by Curi Everything changes. Not everything evolves. Every organization needs leaders who can lead evolution. Change is inevitable; evolving is not. Evolving means becoming a better version of ourselves, our organizations, and our world by focusing on the things we have influence over.
Overcoming the adverse reaction to chaos and embracing the struggles that strengthen allow leaders to help their organizations to evolve. The world is moving faster and faster, requiring a constant evolving mentality. Never rest on laurels or past accomplishments; instead, seek to grow, stretch, and evolve. Learn from those that came before and refused to evolve, and gain insight into how you can lead your evolution.
Complete with Judson’s famous "the evolution of dance," this keynote ensures that everyone recognizes that everything changes - not everything evolves. |

General Session Salon ABC Have a Voice, Not Merely a Seat at the Table Sharon Delaney McCloud In today's professional world, your communication must rise above obstacles like the waning human attention span, distraction, bias, technology and other challenges. In group settings, men are 75% more likely to speak up than women, under-represented minorities and introverts. And when a woman, minority or introvert does speak up, it's statistically probable that their male counterparts will either interrupt them or speak over them. What does this mean? If you're not ready to fight to be heard through ally-building strategies, your potential could be silenced. In this engaging, actionable session, Sharon will share how to amplify your voice figuratively (and literally) and hone your message to make certain that your voice is heard - so that you truly have a voice, and not just a seat, at the table.
Key takeaways:
- Ways to amplify your voice using proven techniques from global leaders.
- Message development tactics to strengthen your communication.
- Understanding how body language and vocal delivery affect your overall communication.
