Keynotes

Keynote by speaker Jacob Morgan: Leading With Vulnerability: Unlock Your Superpower and Transform Yourself, Your Team, And Your Company

How do some of the world’s top leaders unlock the potential of others, create trust, and lead through change? While vulnerability cripples some leaders, others tap into it and use it as a superpower. Vulnerability alone makes leaders seem incompetent. Competence on its own makes it hard for leaders to connect with their people. The key is to develop both competence and vulnerability, what Jacob calls “The Vulnerable Leader Equation.” Based on over 100 CEO interviews and a survey of nearly 14,000 employees, Jacob shares unique research, strategies, and candid stories that teach audiences how they can tap into vulnerability to transform themselves, their teams, and their organizations

Learning objectives:

How vulnerability can be used to lead through change.

The difference between vulnerability and vulnerable leadership.

Why leaders struggle with vulnerability.

The different types of vulnerable leaders and the pros and cons of each.

The 8 attributes of vulnerable leaders.

The ROI of leading with vulnerability.

What happens if being vulnerable backfires.

The importance of competence.

Keynote by speaker Jacob Morgan: The Employee Experience Advantage: How To Create An Organization Where People Want, Not NEED to Show Up

Nothing matters more than the experience organizations create for their people, this has become glaringly true in a post-pandemic
world. For decades, organizations have been investing in short-term “adrenaline shot” programs such as free food or workfrom-home Fridays with no impact for team members or the organization. Organizations have been using these “engagement programs” to distract employees from the sad reality of what it’s like to actually work there. But now it’s time to make actual changes to the core workplaces of organizations.

Instead of forcing people into outdated workplace practices, the world’s top companies are redesigning work around their people by focusing on three environments: culture, technology, and space. In this session, Jacob will share research he did on 252 organizations and will uncover what the world’s top organizations are doing to attract and retain top talent. Employee experience is no longer an “HR thing” it is a “leader thing” and after this session you will know why and what to do about it!

Learning objectives:

Why and how the workplace is changing.

The ROI of employee experience.

Why employee experience and employee engagement are not the same thing.

The three employee experience environments: culture, physical space, and technology.

Why employee experience is not an “HR thing.”

How you can design and create great employee experiences.

5x Best-Selling Author and Speaker on Leadership, The Future of Work, & Employee Experience

Jacob grew up in an immigrant family from the Republic of Georgia, where he was taught the values of hard work, determination, and having a vision. After college, he landed a job in a company that promised growth and development opportunities, but he soon found himself stuck doing menial tasks like cold-calling and PowerPoint presentations. One day, he was asked to fetch coffee by the CEO, which led him to quit and pursue his own entrepreneurial journey.

Today, Jacob is a successful international author, keynote speaker, futurist, and entrepreneur with a global following. He conducts extensive research by surveying employees and working with CEOs worldwide, and he designs each of his speeches to be impactful, backed by data, and filled with engaging stories. His areas of expertise include leadership, the future of work, and employee experience, and he aims to inspire his audience to take action and provide practical tools to help them turn their visions into reality.

Jacob collaborates closely with his clients to tailor his speeches to their specific needs and align them with their goals, whether it is for a small group of CEOs or a large audience of thousands.
