Navigating Rapid Change: Staying Steady in 2026

Course Description

We’re operating in a constant wave of change. New technology, evolving tools, faster communication, and shifting workplace expectations are transforming how we work—often overnight. What was effective yesterday may not work today, and handling that shift smoothly (and profitably) is something every professional and organization must learn.

The real question is: how ready are you for the change that’s guaranteed to come next?

High-performing people and companies don’t simply respond to change—they lead it. But since most individuals naturally dislike uncertainty, change can trigger conscious or subconscious resistance. That resistance often shows up as reduced productivity, performance issues, higher turnover, and unnecessary workplace tension.

In this high-energy session, Don will break down what’s changing, what it means for you, and how to build a mindset and strategy that helps you stay ahead—without the stress and drama that change often brings.
