Enlightened Leadership – Transforming Your Playlist for Exponential Success

 

As a leader, you are facing the daunting challenge of producing next-level results in a time of accelerating change and complexity. We need to learn to change and adapt faster, but we are exhausted doing so. Unfortunately, we are, as leaders, stuck in ruts that are no longer serving us or our teams in our ever-evolving environment. But how do you recognize these ruts and change them to produce better outcomes? You’ve got a secret weapon that’s been right under your nose all along: music!

 

The Enlightened Leadership keynote will share a process to:

  • Explore how your personal "playlist" and destructive patterns impacts your leadership effectiveness.
  • Discover the neuroscience behind using music to disrupt and overcome limiting leadership patterns.
  • Learn to leverage music for accelerated personal and leadership development.
  • Address burnout, team engagement, and navigating change through this innovative approach.


Enlightened Leadership means your personal evolution fuels your leadership evolution, and the key to that process is pattern recognition and disruption. Uncover the patterns no longer serving your leadership goals, learn how music can enhance neuroplasticity to disrupt these patterns, and how you can bring these insights to your teams for maximum impact. Harness music’s ability to help make change stick, by priming the brain to form new pathways in a faster, more efficient way. In 60 minutes, you will learn this unique approach to overcoming deeply rooted limiting patterns and understand how you can create lasting change through a more powerful playlist that will enlighten your leadership and your life.

“When I inherited a large, new team at Oracle, Susan drove success in our business by helping us learn our working styles through the Enneagram assessment process and by guiding us to develop strong models for understanding and collaboration. Our engagement with Susan was an essential part of our turnaround strategy for the business.”

— ROB TARKOFF, EVP & GM, Oracle Corporation

“As an emerging healthcare business, our senior team formed quickly and we needed to drive results right out of the gate. Susan helped us understand the diversity of leadership styles on the team, how to leverage each other’s strengths and watch out for blind spots... trust, collaboration, and respect are now embedded in our culture and will be a foundation for our future growth.”

— HUGH LYTLE, CEO, Equality Health

Susan's Book

The Leader's Playlist

We all have a playlist running in the background of our lives that acts as a ceiling on our leadership effectiveness. You may feel you can’t retain or engage your people. You may feel burned out, or your team may be overwhelmed by the pace of change. You may feel that you can’t delegate or trust your team to deliver. The impact of the pandemic has been so far reaching that every leader has struggled in some way in the face of massive disruption.

The Leader’s Playlist will share a process to:

  • Uncover the playlist impacting your leadership
  • Share research that explains why music is a powerful tool for understanding and reshaping your behavior
  • Teach you how to leverage music to help you be a better leader
  • This isn’t just a metaphor. Music has the ability to help make change stick, by priming the neurological landscape to form new neural pathways in a faster, more efficient way. In this book, you will learn more about this unique approach and the tools to create a new, more powerful playlist that will transform your leadership and your life.
  • Overview:
  • This book is about uncovering a leader’s internal playlist, which is burned into the deepest recesses of the brain through childhood trauma and which directly reduces their leadership effectiveness and personal happiness. My work is to help the leader hear the playlist and understand how it has impacted their life and leadership. With awareness comes the opportunity to heal wounds, the empowerment to create a new playlist, to improve their leadership and their lives, and, ultimately, to focus on helping humanity rather than inflicting further wounds on the next generation.
