As the requirement in many business sectors has become 'do more with less,' many of us are asking, 'How can I sustain resilience and creativity in my life and as a leader?' This session will explore how to maintain mental health, curiosity, discipline and positive empowerment for yourself and your team. Having lead teams on different scales - 20 to 350 - in volatile conditions, I understand how critical it is to personally embrace and then extend to those around you a balance of inspiration and discipline. Helping your team believe that experimentation and inventiveness is integral to success will foster an environment of bold creativity. Further, when we utilize the ideas of resilience as a creative leader, the fear of failure for yourself and your team will reveal not a reflection of worth, but rather an opportunity for growth and creative fearlessness.
