Presenter: Angela R Howard, Founder, Call for Culture

In times of disruption, uncertainty, and accelerated change, leaders have a choice: react from habit or lead with intention. Adaptive & Inclusive Leadership: Owning Your Impact Through Times of Change is a practical, human centered session designed to help leaders strengthen their self awareness, expand their capacity, and embrace the responsibility of their influence - especially when stakes are high.

Participants will explore what it means to lead adaptively, inclusively, and responsibly in moments of ambiguity and organizational transformation. This session will challenge leaders to examine how their behaviors shape culture, either amplifying trust and resilience or unintentionally contributing to friction and inequity.
 

Key Takeaways:

  • Recognize and regulate their impact during complex or high pressure situations
  • Center inclusion and equity in decision making
  • Communicate with clarity, empathy, and accountability
  • Model the adaptability needed to guide teams through change with confidence and humanity
