FranklinCovey Hosts Exclusive Live Webinar with Bestselling Authors, Amy Edmondson, Stephen M. R. Covey and Liz Wiseman on The Power of Leadership in Uncertain Times
SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FranklinCovey (NYSE: FC): Walker added, "Change isn't the exception, it's the rule. How organizations respond to disruptive moments along their journey will determine whether they simply endure the turbulence, or use it as a catalyst to evolve, adapt, and transform." Paul Walker, FranklinCovey CEO, said, 'When uncertainty hits, it doesn't remain outside an organization. It creeps inside into how leaders lead, how teams perform, and how organizations hold it together when nothing feels stable. Leaders are expected to move fast and stay decisive, without a playbook. Teams are expected to deliver more—with less clarity, less connection, and fewer resources.' To help organizations overcome these challenges, FranklinCovey is hosting an exclusive webinar with Edmondson, Covey and Wiseman for a provocative conversation that will explore the hidden costs of uncertainty and how today's best leaders are breaking through to become change agents during times of disruption. Walker added, 'Change isn't the exception, it's the rule. How organizations respond to disruptive moments along their journey will determine whether they simply endure the turbulence, or use it as a catalyst to evolve, adapt, and transform.' The panel of experts will explore the three barriers no leader can afford to ignore in these uncertain times: The Leadership Crisis: Why outdated leadership models are taxing performance and growth—and what leaders must do now to adapt. The Engagement Recession: How exhaustion, disconnection, and cultures of caution are negatively impacting performance and morale—and how leaders can reignite commitment and resilience. The Adaptability Dilemma: How over-analysis, misalignment, and chronic rigidity are stalling performance—and how great leaders move fast, build trust, and create clarity in times of disruption. ABOUT THE PRESENTERS: Amy C. Edmondson: Amy C. Edmondson is the Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management at the Harvard Business School, a chair established to support the study of human interactions that lead to the creation of successful enterprises that contribute to the betterment of society.

Her 2019 book, The Fearless Organization: Creating Psychological Safety in the Workplace for Learning, Innovation and Growth (Wiley), has been translated into 15 languages. Edmondson's latest book, Right Kind of Wrong (Atria), builds on her prior work on psychological safety and teaming to provide a framework for thinking about, discussing, and practicing the science of failing well. First published in the US and in the UK (Penguin) in September 2023, the book is due to be translated into 24 additional languages and was selected for the Financial Times and Schroders Best Business Book of the Year award.
