Leading Through Uncertainty

How do we lead through uncertainty?

How do we embrace the current environment of rapid economic change and volatility and look for opportunities?

Every day we face different situations and they may be chaotic, complex, complicated or simple. Sometimes we face all of these at the same time without realising it. For example, in a hospital: the emergency ward may be chaotic, the internal politics may be complex, a surgical operation may be complicated and the admission process for a patient may be simple.

Knowing the difference between these situations and how to plan, communicate and lead in each is the difference between exploiting opportunities in the current environment or being a victim of it. Transitioning a chaotic environment into a simple one requires adding the right type of structure and determining the underlying cause and effect. Once you understand how to do this in a systemic way it simplifies the process significantly.

Our course will give you the simple, practical tools that are ready to use immediately within the workplace. It will give you the confidence and ability to find and exploit the opportunities in the current rapidly changing environment. It will give you an edge over your competition. What we teach leverages Tier 1 management consulting and Special Forces military experience. It is tried, tested and unique.

What our previous course attendees have said:

I found this course tremendously helpful and valuable. It has changed how I think about leadership and planning; I only wish I had done it years ago. I have no hesitation recommending every leader does this course. Former GM Business Development, Fortescue Metals Group

Leading Through Uncertainty is the most powerful leadership training I have been involved in. The program applies a unique approach that is underpinned by academic management theory and draws in the application of these theories in the most challenging of workplaces…the battle field. Both practical and entertaining, I walked away with some valuable leadership tools and a greater insight to how I can be a more effective Leader. General Manager, HSE and Risk at Telstra

The Rekon Leadership course ͞How to lead in chaotic, complex, and complicated environments,  exposed me to strategies and tactics that work when it really matters. The content and delivery is clearly informed by the insight that the instructors have drawn from their elite military and private sector experience. This is not stuff you can learn from a book. I’d recommend it to anyone in a leadership role who is looking for an edge. Oil & Gas Business Development Manager
