Samantha Kris Speaking Topics

  • Leading Through Liminality

    The pace of change is accelerating, yet leadership practices have largely remained the same. This is a problem, one that Samantha seeks to stop and reroute in this thought-provoking talk. In it, she explores what’s required of leaders who are intent on driving lasting change. Your audience will leave with greater awareness of themselves and their teams, an understanding of what’s needed to build a culture of reinvention, and tools to successfully navigate uncharted waters.

  • Becoming Unsinkable

    Chaos, disruption, and volatility are unavoidable. Your organization’s inability to recognize and adapt to these icebergs will inevitably lead to its demise. In this compelling talk, Samantha dismantles old assumptions, values, and beliefs about change that sink companies, known as the Titanic Syndrome. Your team will learn how to diagnose this corporate disease and develop a mindset of resilience and resourcefulness that will keep your ship afloat.
