In a recent survey of 3,000 executives Alix found that 72% of executives are actually worried about losing their jobs due to “disruption,” - up from 51% in 2021. And 94% believe they will have to change their business models within the next three years to remain competitive. The pressure of leaders to find answers is intense. On top of this we have the challenge of leading our teams remotely: 89% of team members surveyed by RMIT said their employers wanted them back at the office but only 41% wanted to return.Indeed. we live in a time of great change. Leaders need to step up and speak out. From climate change to diversity, C-Suite leaders are themselves looking for leadership. Where do you turn to? How do you speak up without speaking out of tune? And how do you navigate this ever changing world of work? To help us answer that question I’m joined on the XL Podcast by Harvard MBA & Personal Branding Expert Brenda Bence. She’s recognized by Thinkers50 as a Leading Global Coach, her publications include “The Forgotten Choice” which was quoted by NYT Bestseller Ron Kaufman as being “…more than just a useful reminder. It’s an encouraging guide to thoughtful action—and to action in your thoughts. Brilliant!” Let’s learn about “Thoughtful Action” with Brenda from the inside out.
