Program Description: 

Wildly agile:  a dog musher’s perspective on project management, business analysis, and managing change
Being Wild means having the courage to bring the gift of all of who you are to all of what you do.

'Virtual reality' has taken on a whole new meaning as we meet in each other’s living rooms, finding our way in this utterly new terrain.  Whether zoom meetings are commonplace or new for you and your team, it calls for Wildly Inclusive Leadership in order for projects to move forward and team members to be present and engaged.  With the help of some hilarious stories and analogies from Chris’ sled dog team, we’ll dig into how to:

—Be ‘under-cover alpha dogs’ 

—Influence and manage ‘up’ 

—Guide change

—Work with ‘what is’

—Draw out the unique talents of each member of your team, whether they have four legs or two!
