Unlock truly transformational leadership with Nick Jankel, a master theorist and practitioner of transformational leadership who has developed over 100,000 leaders in Fortune 500 companies.
Transformational leaders can deliver 600x the results of average ones but in today's VUCA reality, 80-90% of leaders lack the mindsets, behaviors, and tools needed to lead change, innovation, and transformation effectively. 30% of CEOs admit to missing out on global business opportunities due to a shortage of leaders with the right mindsets and capabilities. 93% of senior leaders acknowledge that their organizations are not effectively building leaders, and an additional 90% state that leadership development fails to achieve concrete business results or clear impact.
Nick unveils an actionable blueprint for leading lasting change, adaptation, innovation, and transformation that ensures any organization can survive and thrive in today's ruthless and relentless reality. He puts himself on the line every time to inspire each audience member to step up and lead the change they want to see—and provides tools, techniques, and daily practices to help them do so.
Few people on Earth have led as many disruptive innovation and transformation programs with and for large companies and institutions as Nick Jankel nor thought so long and hard about why ambitious innovation is so hard in larger organizations… and how to unlock it one leader and team at at time.
It’s a mission-critical matter as many large companies are witnessing their long established business models begin to decline. Cost-cutting and efficiency won’t save them. They need to innovate and create outsized value.
About 90% of the Fortune 500 companies from 1955 no longer exist. It's estimated that 50% of today's S&P will be replaced in the next decade, disrupted by AI and other exponential technologies. Not even the tech giants are exempt from the evolutionary rule of adapt or die.
Most innovation, change, and transformation projects fail not because of a lack of ideas or investment but because of outdated mindsets, behaviors, and processes. There is too much judgment, force, and command and control and far too little creativity and customer insight.
Having led 100+ breakthrough innovation and transformation programs for worldleading companies, Nick shares a proven pathway and ground-breaking tools for driving successful breakthrough innovation and digital transformation—by working with, not against, human biologies and cultures.
As a leadership futurist, Nick engages and inspires audiences not only with what is probable, possible, and problematic in the future… but also how to shift mindsets and behaviors in the room and beyond to forge the future audience members want to see.
The way we work is undergoing a profound sea change, comparable in magnitude to the shift from farming to factories. Industrial Age working practices, focused on efficiency and profit at the expense of creativity and connection, are failing.
Employees in high trust companies have over 100% more energy, 50% higher productivity and 40% less burnout than standard companies. Engaged employees are +44% more productive than satisfied ones and inspired employees are +125% productive. 60% of team members say they have a negative team climate, 84% have worked with a toxic coworker and 87% have had a toxic boss.
The workforce, spanning four generations, has diverse needs, leading to growing tensions between generations as workers grapple with threats from AI and existential concerns about climate change, inequality, layoffs, and the cost of living. With two decades of experience running his own hybrid organizations and assisting Fortune 500s in enhancing their workplaces and culture model, Nick is committed to inventing a better future of work and leadership.
