Transformational Leadership in a VUCA World: Thriving in Uncertainty & Change

The modern world is increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA), requiring leaders to be adaptable, innovative, and people-focused. In this world, it can feel challenging to be the kind of transformational leaders we aim to be. However, research shows transformational leadership is especially effective in times of change. So while it must be practiced differently, it is imperative leaders understand how to transform themselves, their employees, and their organizations in pace with the changing world around them. This keynote teaches leaders how to thrive amidst uncertainty by using transformational leadership principles to inspire teams, foster innovation, and build resilience. Bailey Parnell combines a decade of experience building leadership development programs for the world’s leading organizations with her doctoral research studying transformational leadership and organizational change to provide audiences with an action-oriented perspective. 

Bailey Parnell’s unique keynote style incorporates a combination of short, interactive exercises to engage audiences and help ensure attendees retain what they learn! Imagine a keynote speaker with a bit of what you love about workshops all in one.

Attendees will gain:

  • A deep understanding of transformational leadership in high-change environments
  • Strategies for leading with vision, empathy, and adaptability
  • Practical approaches for motivating and empowering teams in uncertain times
  • Strategies for applying transformational leadership practices in hybrid, remote, and global settings
