The sound of a culture, is the sum of all the working parts within a team or organization. It’s what people will ultimately hear, feel, and encounter when they come into contact with your people, products, and even marketing. This topic will equip and motivate your people to intentionally make progress, by acknowledging issues, aligning with values, and pressing into the areas where a cultural breakthrough is needed.
The Breakdown
Every culture has a sound, and every one is unique in their own right within that culture. In this talk everyone is invited to consider these two questions: What is the sound of your culture? And, what would you like it to be? Cultures are often shaped by “default” of personality, but progress within an organization must be made by “intention” in two main areas: perspective and practice.
Intentional perspective includes: The values, thinking, and vibe of a culture; they go by many names, but these intangible factors are the force behind every team and organization. As well, the language, vision, and story we tell. Your organization and team is telling a story and setting a tone others hear, what is the sound of yours?
Intentional practice includes: The instrumentation, tools, and team that carry out the vision and convey a message. As well as, the rhythm, pace, and beat a team moves to. Pacing is everything in work and in life. Whether you see the journey as a marathon, a succession of sprints, or a stroll; in order to have a unified culture there must be an understanding of season and pace.
Every culture has the potential to be better. This message will equip and motivate leaders to take the necessary steps for progress and cultural breakthrough.

The art of the restart is about resilience. Making progress, and staying on the right path in spite of difficulties and setbacks is one the toughest and repeated lessons leaders must learn. This talk equips leaders to identify and craft a plan for problem solving that will lead to less time wasted, less burnout, and better decision-making under pressure.
The Breakdown
Problems are our greatest opportunities for creativity, growth, and connection. How we approach, handle, and persevere determines our outcome. This talk unpacks the vital steps to achieve progress, regardless of the problems or circumstance.
Pause. Pausing to BALL (breathe, ask, listen, and listen more) is crucial to taking your next right step.
Plan. Thoughtfully planning protects us from mindless racing, wasted time or effort, and future breakdowns of communication or purpose.
Persist. Most people quit when they feel a limit has been reached; resilient leaders stay the course of their vision and values by simply continuing to take their next right step.
No matter where a team, or leader finds themself today, progress is always just one step away! There is more in you, there is more in your team, and this talk will help them tap into that potential for growth. ...less
