SUMMARY:Why Adversity Is the Key to Future Identity
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:  \nIn this powerful and deeply personal keynote\, Magie takes the audience on a journey through the defining moments of her life—moments marked by hardship\, struggle\, and seemingly insurmountable adversity. But rather than breaking her\, these experiences became the blueprint for her transformation. This talk explores the universal truth that adversity doesn’t diminish us—it refines us. Through raw storytelling and lived experience\, Magie reveals how life’s toughest challenges shape us into stronger\, wiser\, and more purpose-driven individuals. She introduces her signature 3R Framework —Resourceful\, Resilient\, and Relentless—a mindset model born from lived experience that empowers audiences to rise\, rebuild\, and reimagine who they’re meant to become. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \nReframe adversity as a catalyst for strategic advantage \nUse mental conditioning tools like power declarations and future mapping to attract the future you desire \nPractice future-casting to align daily actions with long-term purpose \nLearn from rejection (“No”) and use it as redirection toward greater impact \nIdentify and remove internal and external roadblocks that are silently sabotaging your success. \n  \nTo Watch this Webinar on the Media Library CLICK HERE! \n \n

SUMMARY:Human-Centered Leadership: Leading with Heart\, Head\, and Humility

SUMMARY:From Hunches in Bunches to Data Driven Decisions
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:  \nDo you ever find yourself sitting in a Dr Seuss book? “Its awfully awfully awful when you can’t make up your mind! Oh\, you get so many hunches that you don’t know ever quite if the right hunch is the wrong hunch? Then the wrong hunch might be right!” \nThe commitment to move away from hunches to data-driven is fueled by intentional data strategy\, data literacy\, and data hygiene… and it is everyone in the organization’s responsibility to contribute. \nIn this session we will: \n• Discuss the foundation of people\, process\, and technology. \n• Consider the impact of change management methodology as catalyst. \n• Define the different variables in the success formula: (data governance\, data literacy\, data hygiene\, data visualizations\, and others). \n• Evaluate the positives and pitfalls of starting with governance\, visualization\, and/or both. \n• Facilitate sharing amongst peers – excellent and not-as-excellent experiences. \n• Highlight different key roles\, including who is ‘accountable’ for success. \n• Assess with a four-pillar model: Collect\, Connect\, Protect\, and Respect. \n• Ensure an ecumenical approach across the organization\, collaborative across teams\, inclusive of different levels of experience and perspective\, and not “IT-only” or “Marketing-only”. \n• Recap participant insights and takeaways for the benefit of all. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \nDescribe the metrics they are using (or will use) to determine success in their data-driven-decision initiatives. \nApply the four-pillar model (Collect\, Connect\, Protect\, and Respect) to evaluate their data-driven-decision initiatives. \nConstruct at least three actionable next-steps for their data-driven-decision initiatives. \n  \nTo Watch this Webinar on the Media Library CLICK HERE!
