  • Moments That Matter: See, Shape, and Scale What Counts

    Every career, every relationship, every organization has defining moments that determine its trajectory. Most people recognize these moments only in hindsight. Chris Dyer’s Moments That Matter framework, drawn from his bestselling book of the same name, teaches leaders and teams to see moments coming, shape them intentionally, and scale their impact across the organization.

    Chris identifies seven types of moments that matter: Inception, Transition, Decision, Recognition, Connection, Truth, and Culmination. Drawing on case studies from IKEA, General Motors, and MetLife, Chris gives audiences a practical methodology for designing moments that strengthen culture, deepen relationships, and drive better decisions.

    • A framework for the seven types of moments that shape outcomes

    AI, shifting workforce expectations, hybrid models, and market volatility are hitting organizations simultaneously.

    Chris draws on his experience as a CEO who grew a company through two recessions and a pandemic, as well as insights from his work with NASA, Intuit, and Caesars. Attendees leave with meeting hacks, email strategies, and boundary-setting approaches that prevent burnout while fostering belonging.
