Leading Through Change

Gary Hubbell

​

You lead from wherever you are. Margaret Wheatley says a leader is anyone who shows up with intention. Kevin Cashman defines leadership as authentic influence that creates value.

Now, perhaps more than any prior time in your life, the world is calling you to show up in a different way. You may feel like your environment is demanding better solutions from you … faster, and more effective than ever before? You may not always be sure you’ve got the answers? You’ve also got considerable experience and are probably unlikely to sit through some “how to” lecture (you can get that on the webinar du jour)? Perhaps your energy is being depleted and you may be feeling like you’re stuck ... trying to hide evidence of that from others?

What if this present era of volatility, uncertainty, and complexity is not some temporary phase to be endured but instead is the pattern of the next normal? What if the things you thought you knew about being a leader may turn out to be heavy baggage in this emerging world?

This master class is not about learning more tools and techniques. You’ll have plenty of attractive offerings throughout the conference. Rather, this class is a deep dive into your mindset as a leader.

You’ll be asked to draw upon your own inner leadership journey — from both personal and organizational contexts — to intentionally illuminate and explore new breakthrough pathways. You’ll leave with an even clearer sense of your authentic leadership value … and the impact to be made by unleashing the highest and best contribution you can make — an evolving conversation with reality and the future you most seek to evoke around you.

This deep exploration of the foundational elements of leadership success is intended to engage, inform, and inspire you to be a catalyst for change in your team, your organization, and in your communities of influence.

Together, we’ll explore powerful leadership possibilities by:

1. Lifting your conscious awareness (choice) of what to see

2. Awakening and reinforcing your inner voice (the true leader within)

3. Knowing where and how to intervene positively in a human ecosystem

Gary Hubbell has served others for more than three decades. Across this span of time, he’s come to listen for the voice of his vocation. As his awareness grows, Gary routinely asks himself, what animates me? What fosters total alignment of my gifts and my desires; my contributions and the opportunities I seek; my intention and my attention? What is at the intersection of my inner gladness and world’s great needs? Gary strives to strengthen organizations for inevitable change and great impact. He’s animated by passions and energies of individuals and teams - both inside and outside organizations - who are trying to change the world. He’s energized by people who are on the cusp of big moves whether they’re conscious or not, helping others “see” in new ways, and illuminating blind spots on the path to great things for our shared world. These intentions have led to a career arc characterized by spotting and fanning the best of “what is” (employing appreciative inquiry and positive psychology); learning to tell a clear story (public relations); discerning interests and attitudes (opinion research); setting about on new directions (scenario thinking, planning, facilitation, organization change initiatives); catalyzing opportunity and unlocking joy (all aspects of philanthropy); and curating meaningful conversations (executive coaching and GHC Conversations).
