Don’t Wait for the Wheels to Fall Off: "When your most important product development project is a year behind schedule (and the schedule has been revved three times), who would you call to get the project back on track? When the project’s unrealistic cost constraints wall of the design space where the solution resides, who would you call to open up the higher-cost design space? When the project team has tried and failed to figure out the root cause of the problem, who would you call to get to the bottom of it?"

Introduction to Executive Design: Experience Awake, Aware Design | October 25-26, 2024 Join us for an immersive Introduction to Executive Design, where we explore a transformative approach to leadership. In today’s fast-paced world, executive leaders face complex challenges and rapid change. But what if the way we approach these problems is shaped by how we think—beyond strategies, opinions, or plans? This two-day experience invites you to step into a new space of knowing, guided by deep inquiry. We’ll ask questions like: Why are you here? What does that call you to do? Who does that call you to become? As McKinsey & Company predicts, by 2026, 50% of business revenues will come from products and services not yet imagined. Navigating this future requires an unprecedented way of thinking—one that moves beyond our habitual minds and embraces conscious, transrational awareness. What You’ll Experience: Learn how to orient your thinking for a world of exponential change. Engage with skill practices of consciousness and leadership mastery. Prepare yourself for an emerging, unknown future. This is more than a workshop—it's an invitation to rethink how we engage with complexity and lead with clarity. Don’t miss this opportunity to recalibrate your leadership and design the future with intention. https://lnkd.in/gYF43jYj #ExecutiveDesign #LeadershipEvolution #AwakeAwareDesign #FutureReady #ConsciousLeadership

I’m excited to share that on October 25-26, The HuPerson Project is hosting the Introduction to Executive Design: Experience Awake, Aware Design—a transformative two-day experience for leaders looking to truly evolve how they lead. In today’s world of rapid change, it’s no longer enough to rely on traditional strategies. What if the key to navigating this complexity lies not in what we do, but in how we think? This immersive experience invites us to step into a new space of knowing, beyond the conventional. We’ll explore big questions like: Why are you here? What does that call you to do? And most importantly, who does that call you to become? It’s the perfect opportunity to recalibrate and prepare for a future where half of business revenues will come from products and services that haven’t even been imagined yet. This isn’t just about business—it’s about transforming how we approach leadership, complexity, and the unknown. Join us for what promises to be a powerful shift in how we lead. Let’s design the future with intention. #Leadership #ExecutiveDesign #FutureOfBusiness #Transformation #HuPersonProject

Are you designing your future with intention and clarity? If your immediate response is "of course, I have my plan, I know where I'm going." I'd challenge you on that. Your plan is likely based on someone else's ideas for you, AND based on past expertise. The world is changing more quickly than ever before. Society can't keep up. Business can't keep up. What you learned yesterday will be obsolete tomorrow. So where will you turn? I love the work that The HuPerson Project does because it teaches you how to be in conversation with life itself, to step into that new space of knowing so that when everything goes sideways, you don't. I know their work and it's of the highest quality. This is a great opportunity. btw - I'm not an affiliate and get no commissions.

I don't know about you, but "business as usual" isn't working for me. Applying the same traditional strategies in a rapidly changing world isn't moving the dial anymore. So what can leaders do about it? Introduction to Executive Design provides real tools in a condensed, two-day immersive format. Take a look and message us if you'd like to explore more.
