A talk by Karen Lukanovich Founder, Summit2Summit Coaching As we strive to adapt to our new reality since the arrival of Covid-19, most of us are struggling to stay centered in the midst of complete upheaval in our lives and businesses. Feeling unsettled, anxious, and fearful is normal, and the opportunity lies in how we respond. These are trying times - but we can help ourselves, others and our businesses cope in a positive way. In our talk, we'll address why goal setting is so important and how we can transform goals into actionable steps that inspire us and our teams to keep moving forward. Key takeaways will include: Competitive athletes learn from their coaches that in the face of high stress and pressure we must focus on what we can control, not on the things we can't. What are some key principles we can learn from top performers? How you can strategize for success by designing a simple goal framework that aligns with your company's purpose, values and future vision. A framework designed to empower trust, input, engagement and accountability across all teams. How to leverage the power of this process to reframe mindsets, fuel motivation, and commitment to actions that will build resilience and bolster confidence in leadership and teams. An approach that will help you to navigate through disruptions and crisis now and in the future.

“I learned way more from how I faced the challenge of chaos and change
than anything else, and now instead of Olympic prep, I’m talking about
maintaining focus when the plan you had went out the window.
Your destination may be the same, but the path to get there is going to
be different. Don’t just accept the changes, begin anticipating them.
Change or be changed… Envision your new path. Let it be simple at first,
fill it out as things progress.”
-Marnie McBean, Canadian rower, 4 x Olympic medalist and Chef de Mission Tokyo 2020 in her
