Keynotes / Workshops:

1. Go for Bold: How to create powerful strategy in uncertain times

Unlock the potential within your organisation to create a bolder, better future.

The past two years have shown us that we’re more adaptable, more creative than we realised. That’s fantastic, but what comes next? While managing in the moment, too many organisations have lost confidence and focus when planning for their long game.

Drawing on the stories and practical solutions offered in her new book, Go for Bold, strategist Rosie Yeo will challenge you to rethink how you’re setting your own organisation’s ambition.

She reveals how you can find answers to your big questions by unleashing your team’s innate creativity, honing in on what is most important and mapping a clear pathway to success.

For: Organisational leaders, managers and business owners: anyone who has a plan or needs to plan.

2. Think Bold: How three simple questions can supercharge your future plans

We all know we’re meant to “be strategic” but what does that really mean?

Rosie unpicks how thinking differently can unlock fresh ideas and give you more confidence to set your own ambitions and map out your own path to success.

Each one of us can step up and become more powerful strategists in our businesses and lives.  It all starts with three simple questions.

For: Upcoming business leaders and emerging business owners who want to confidently plan for future success.

3. Strategy alchemy: the magic behind bolder, better planning

High performing organisations create and deliver powerful strategies. So how do they reach those shared “aha” moments when everyone is on board and the way ahead is crystal clear?

Highlighting some of the key takeaways from her new book: Go for Bold, Rosie reveals how to lead strategic discussions that surface new ideas, focus on what is most important and build strong consensus for action. She provides practical solutions for overcoming innovation blocks, avoiding lowest common denominator decisions and generating the momentum to ensure that what’s agreed gets done.
