FREE MASTERCLASS: HOW TO “CARPE THE CHAOS” AND THRIVE

Issue 174 — August 2, 2021

A colleague once gave me a poster bearing the caption, “When you’re up to your ass in alligators, it’s hard to remember your goal was to drain the swamp.”

That’s always good for a chuckle of recognition, because, I mean really, is there any one of us who hasn’t been there? In a time of chaos, whether it’s economic, or social, or within your organization, when many people are desperately trying to keep those writhing reptiles from nipping their knees, it’s hard to keep your eyes on the prize, your focus on the vision, your hands steady at the wheel. Goodness knows the pandemic has thrown all of us into various kinds of chaos in our personal and professional lives.

Feel like this woman? How do you respond to chaos in your life or at work? Has the pandemic created a chaotic situation for you? Join me for this masterclass and I will give you 5 ways not just to cope with chaos but to seize the moment and thrive despite — and sometimes because of — disruption and chaos. Register here. It’s FREE.

A counterintuitive skill that can help anyone thrive in times of change and disruption is to embrace the chaos as opportunity.

Carpe the chaos is my power tool number five of the nine I created, and that I teach about. These power tools are designed to help women succeed in life and at work.

When you’ve been in a chaotic situation, in work or in your personal life, what did you do? Did you retreat or did you step forward and own it? Are you rethinking or retooling your career?

Did you rewrite the rules and set new parameters? What did you learn that might help others in that process?

I’m going to tell you there are no magic answers to keeping true to your goal when the alligators are nipping at your feet, but there are five tips to help you keep your head above water and the alligators at bay that I will be sharing in my Carpe the Chaos Masterclass on Wednesday, August 4th at 4pm ET.

You’ll learn five effective ways to turn chaos into positives for your life and leadership.

And we will have exercises and live Q and A to help you on your journey.
