Our teams, organizations and world are thirsty for authentic leaders and compelling cultures!

The last three years have been filled with massive amounts of uncertainty, change, shifts, pivots, division between people, and forced innovation.

Bring your curiosity, your mind and heart.

Leave with inspiration. Lead change. Make an impact. Set your temperature.

Friday, November 8, 2024

James Clear is a writer and keynote speaker focused on habits, decision-making, and continuous improvement. His book, Atomic Habits, has sold over 15 million copies worldwide, has been translated into more than 60 languages and was the #1 best-selling book of 2021 and 2023 on Amazon and #1 audiobook on Audible.

He tries out the concepts for himself as he experiments building better habits as an entrepreneur, writer, and weightlifter. In the end, his talks end up being one-part storytelling, one-part academic research, and one-part experiment, forming a colorful blend of inspirational stories, academic science, and hard-earned wisdom.
