Leadership in times of complexity

March 18, 2020

I have the privilege of working alongside leaders as they navigate the complexities of their world and roles.

Currently this is a time of unprecedented complexity as more and more information comes to hand around Covid19.

As leaders, you navigate competing demands to make the best decision with current information at hand. It’s complex.

There are key qualities I see a leader needs during complex times such as these.

They need a

Strong head
Open heart
Grounded values
and Agile feet

Let me explain further …

Strong head: Logical thinking that calls upon the facts, looks at the evidence and strategically weighs information-up.

Open heart: A heart-space that is open to others without judgement or prejudice.

Grounded Values: Leadership that is deeply steeped in your Why and both personal and organisational core values.

Agile feet: An ability to be agile and adaptive in how you operate and respond to changes around you.

Please know that you’ve got this. You have what you need to navigate these times of uncertainty. It’s inside you. Call it up, bring it forward and trust it.

You’ve got this! And know you’re not alone.

Need a speaker?

There are plenty of speakers to choose from. I am not the norm. You won’t be bored to tears by the same ole’ approach and dribble. How about bringing Mary-Anne for the conference or all-staff day.

Give me a stage and I’ll own it. Give me a room and I’ll energise it. Give me your people and I’ll inform and inspire them.

Need virtual delivery – no sweat! I have facilitated virtual full and half-day workshops, virtual keynote speaking at online conferences, and might I say, you still get the Mary-Anne goodness you deserve!
