Greg Verdino Speaking Topics

ADAPT: Why Adaptability Has Become the New Operating System for Modern Business

The ability of people, teams and entire organizations to reliably, repeatedly and successfully adapt to today’s “never normal” business environment — an environment defined by unrelenting, accelerating change; one in which new conditions, challenges and opportunities emerge every day — makes the difference between success and failure, growth and stagnation, relevance and obsolescence. Based on the Adapt Manifesto, which Greg co-created as a way to align leaders around a set of core principles for infusing adaptability into every area of their organization, this keynote highlights the seven values and 10 key practices every business person must embrace to thrive in the face of volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity.

THE NEVER NORMAL: What's Coming Next, What Will It Mean, and How Can You Thrive in the Era of Constant Disruption

In this provocative keynote, Greg guides audiences through the rocky landscape of exponential change — from a hype-free look at the hottest new technologies to an eye-opening realization that digital will be the least of all disruptions.
