Guest Keynote: Unleashing True Potential: How Quieting Noise Increases Innovation, Deepens Belonging, and Elevates Performance
Jesse Israel,
Founder of the Big Quiet Movement,
As the speed of change and technological advancement continues to accelerate – and with more noise in our lives than ever before – the cross pressures and demands placed on today’s leaders has reached new heights. It’s nearly impossible for them to avoid distraction, stay connected to their teams, and manage burn-out while performing at their full capacity.
A select group of leaders, however, has cracked the code. From his work with some of the most elite performers in the world, Jesse Israel has seen first-hand that there’s one thing they all have in common: they’ve mastered the art of quieting noise. Jesse’s transformational framework provides leaders with the tools they need to navigate uncertainty, build resilience and activate their dormant potential by quieting the noise of the world, the noise in their heads and the noise within their bodies.
Audiences will leave energized, clear and purposeful – equipped to break through performance barriers and tackle the speed of change that the world continues to throw their way. ... Show More Show Less
