Wade Younger's 2024 talks & topics

Think About What You Think About

When it comes to transformation and creating positive future-focused cultures it all comes down to one thing. The way we think.

Our thoughts create choices. Our choices shape our behavior. This is what leads us to having new experiences. Each experience we gain is associated to an emotion. And our emotions track back to new thoughts. It’s an ever-ending cycle.

Where does your innovative thinking come from?

We have not been taught to think about what we think about. We base our decisions based on our past experiences when what we really need is a map for the future.

Wade challenges the way you think so as to broaden your perspective and develop your innovative thinking by providing you with a practical framework and an inspiring approach that will alter the way you currently think.

Nurturing a Culture of Innovation

Innovation derives from a need or desire to do something better, different and first. Most organizations are striving to find ways to
increase their efficiency, make things easier and faster and deliver to their clients making them feel delight, certainty and trust.

Without nurturing a culture of innovation one can achieve some of the above elements, but not all. A culture of innovation requires
psychological safety, clear processes and an environment where people are accountable and encouraged to take initiatives.

At the individual level, you need people who thrive in such environments and can develop their mindset of growth and innovation.

Have a look at some of the most successful organizations. They all have one thing in common. They’ve managed to nurture a culture of innovation.

The Art of Problem Solving, Risk Taking & Change

The word risk is like a red siren that warns about danger, loss, disgrace, or even death. It’s fearsome because there’s a level of uncertainty in it, where we might face bad consequences if things don’t go smoothly.

Change projects are more likely to meet their objectives when those affected by the change have a clear understanding of what to expect in terms of the project’s goals, logistics, and rewards. It is equally important, however, to prepare the participants for any emotional shifts that might occur in themselves or others as a result of the project.

Change requires time and is perpetual. If rushed, the infrastructure will most likely collapse or bestcase scenario the organization will lose its focus and waste valuable time and resources to an unsuccessful endeavor.

Wade provides a tested and proven practical framework of dealing with change while taking into account the emotional cycle of change that most organizations tend to neglect.
