• Learning to Love the Turbulence: Embracing Difficulty and Change Once Your Goal is Airborne
  When we set our minds toward any big goal, we imagine creating our plan and executing it to completion. We tell ourselves that if we work hard enough, we will soar from Point A to Point B gracefully, leaving others to wonder how we ever pulled it off. We begin our journey and everything seems fine. The wind is at our backs and the view is spectacular. Suddenly, there's a terrifying jolt. We've been thrown off course by something we never saw coming: turbulence. Suddenly, our well thought out plan is thrown out the window. We are now in crisis mode. THIS was NOT supposed to happen. Which way is up? Who is on our team? Is there ANY safe place to land? This is the point where we have to ask ourselves if we are doomed for a crash landing or if we are willing to learn to love the turbulence.
  
• Creating Your Personal Flight Plan For Success
  Through a natural aviation metaphor, your team will crawl into the cockpit, becoming decision makers in complete control of their aircraft. Tailored to fit your group’s specific goals and challenges, my Learning to Love the Turbulence workshop will lead your team through thought provoking, pre-flight exercises designed to ask critical questions about route, flight crew and aircraft strength, discussions on managing energy burn through different “phases of flight,” and will invite each participant to discover their ability to become pilot in command of their own journey. The best pilots, and the best leaders, are not those who avoid the bumps along the way. They are the ones who understand that turbulence is a part of any journey worth taking. They have learned to course correct when problems arise, to understand the importance of situational awareness and to build a strong flight crew, all willing to make a journey together. Your team will come away with a pilot’s mindset, a perspective sure to distinguish their ideas and determination from the crowd. Each participant will also leave with a personal flight log, filled with eight weeks of content to propel their journey. The only journey without turbulence is one that never begins.
• How a Strategic Flight Plan Can Get You and Your Team to Your Final Destination
  Some of the best ideas are never fulfilled because the destination is unclear and the journey is not mapped. In this keynote, Amelia Rose Earhart helps the attendees, from take-off to landing, reach their destination. Using the strategies she used to fly around the world, Amelia’s content is both inspiring and thought provoking. Amelia shares the same fundamentals needed for business success: Overcome the self doubt, Be clear on the destination, Create a successful flight plan, Trust your flight crew, Execute on the fly, Believe in Journey, and embrace the turbulence.
