Change the Game to Lead for Tomorrow | Pam Harper | TEDxLakeShoreDriveWomen

Social unrest, Economic upheaval, climate change, revolutionary technology, and more… It can seem overwhelming. And yet, whether you lead an organization of thousands or just yourself, all of these changes can provide opportunities you can use to change the game and lead for tomorrow. However, this can be a major challenge when you’re moving at warp speed to make big things happen. The most persistent issue can be employees’, partners’, and other stakeholders’ sometimes strange responses to moving in new directions. Pam pulls back the curtain on how the great visionary leaders she calls “Growth Igniters” are able to make big things happen by embracing the leadership paradoxes that can naturally emerge in ambiguous uncharted territory.
