The Future is Agile Leadership

Agile Leadership is a core differentiator in tomorrow’s changing world. Agility allows you to respond rapidly to changes in the internal and external environment without losing momentum or vision. Doing things simpler, better and faster is the new prevailing mantra for people everywhere, but to facilitate this, leaders need to know how to activate more of their agile potential.

The key to unlocking agility is to use a blend of existing and new approaches that boost both our heads and hearts. During this session, you will learn two new approaches: Neuro-agility and Motivational Mapping.

Neuro-agility boosts the head – helping you develop more agile brainpower so that you're more brain-fit, learn faster and work more effectively while improving your overall well-being.

Motivational mapping, boosts the heart, improving motivational intelligence!

Coaching to Maximise Performance and Results

How dramatically different would your work and business results be if:
1) You maximised your impact and influence with people – up, across and down?
2) You were liberated from time-consuming tactical business issues?
3) Your team delivered serious results with minimum input from you?

In this talk Carole will show you how you can use powerful leadership coaching tools to improve profits, employee engagement, retention levels and customer satisfaction, amongst many other measures of success. The aims of this presentation are to demonstrate how to:
– Radically improve your communication, impact and influencing skills – whether managing up, across or down.
– Use a range of vital coaching skills and cut-through techniques to raise people’s game and inspire them to much higher levels of behaviour, performance and results.
– Be able to identify the one question to ask that could transform your organisation.
– Appreciate the power of ‘coaching in the moment’

  • Each year my organisation hosts our members' conference and has an external speaker. This year we invited Carole along and where very impressed by her work. Carole was very easy to work with and we've had very positive feedback from delegates attending. Staff also left feeling motivated. Thank you joining us Carole.
    Abby Fraser Davidson
  • Carole’s facilitated sessions on how to use motivation to improve performance are incredibly powerful. My first experience was as part of a Vistage senior leadership group and it was so inspiring that we invited Carole to come and work with our senior leadership team at CLAN Cancer Support. It has been so enlightening.
    Colette Blackwell
  • I am proud to recognize Carole as a top speaker on neuro-agility and an authority in the world of leadership and talent development. Carole is a strong values-driven speaker who is guided by values like integrity, empathy, excellence and quality. She is a dynamic business person who is known for the results she produces. With someone like Carole we can make our world work better.
    Dr. Andre Vermeulen
  • Carole delivered fabulous sessions on motivation and coaching. Our members voted it as one of the best they have received which, given the world class quality of the Vistage speaker bureau, is quite an accolade. In particular, Carole has an authoritative yet under-stated style which is highly engaging. I highly recommend Carole as a speaker and facilitator for board level audiences on the topics of motivation and the future of leadership. The fact that she has been a successful CEO and entrepreneur herself for many years is the icing on the cake!
