Margaret "Magi" Graziano Speaking Topics

  • Ignite Culture The Antidote to Strategic Gridlock

    You may have heard this quote from management guru Peter Drucker, "Culture eats strategy for breakfast". Here’s what he didn’t say, but that you probably know from experience. "An entangled culture eats your leadership team for lunch and your CEO for dinner".

    This is because the harder an organization pushes strategies on an entangled culture, the more it rebels and the more entangled it becomes – we call this "strategic gridlock".

    Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be this way. And it won’t be this way when you have an Emergent Culture because an Emergent Culture is the antidote to strategic gridlock.

    Attendees will walk away with the following culture-building skills:

    • Clarity on the 4 core needs of an Emergent Culture
    • How to spot the 3 biggest “cultural torpedoes” that elude most leaders.
    • How to foster a peak performing culture that breeds trust, alignment, and accountability... without cracking the whip or allowing free-for-all behavior.

  • Response Agility

    In today’s rapidly changing world, you need a competitive advantage. Not just ANY competitive advantage will do… you need THE ULTIMATE COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE.

    That ultimate advantage is the ability to respond to changes in the world and in your market faster and more powerfully than your competitors. This is Response Agility.

    Most organizations are mired in the quicksand of internal turf wars, failed initiatives, and power struggles. They’re so consumed by these behaviors that every day becomes a new battle to hold onto their tenuous market position and to survive the next sucker punch.

    Attendees will walk away from this powerful, interactive keynote with the following:

    • Grace and ease in responding to adversity, stress, and pressure
    • Effective strategies to navigate change thoughtfully and effectively
    • Newfound ownership of their actions and ability to rapidly recalibrate
    • Upgraded perspectives that turn their potential into greater
    • performance.
