Recap from DisruptHR New Orleans

Last Thursday was DisruptHR New Orleans., The theme of the night was the Future of Work, and there were 10 thought provoking presentations. Among them was our CEO, Tracy Eames. This week, she shares her experience presenting, enjoying the event, and simply loving the city for a few days. Tracy’s presentation was “Redefining Leadership: Soft Skill or Strategic Imperative”.

A brief summary would be - Let's face the truth together: leadership is anything but soft. It is quantifiable and directly influences your company's bottom line. So why do we often dismiss it as a soft skill? Because tackling the complexities of leadership is daunting, and it's easier to brush it aside. When leadership is undervalued, organizations miss out on achieving goals, struggle with high turnover rates, and face a lack of employee engagement—a costly combination. But what if we shift our perspective on leadership? What if we empowered leaders in a new way? We will reframe leadership and discuss how leaders can unlock growth, foster effective teams, and cultivate a winning organizational culture. Don't miss out on this opportunity to revolutionize your approach to leadership and drive tangible results for your company.
