About the
Virtual Event

“When everyone’s mind is dulled or distracted the leader must be doubly vigilant.” — General Colin Powell, former Secretary of State

According to a recent Fortune magazine article, 60% of employees can’t go longer than 30 minutes without getting distracted (and that might be a generous estimate). With smartphone alerts buzzing, social media, political tensions, “quiet quitting” and an overload of daily emails, that is probably not a surprise.

How are leaders supposed to cut through the clutter and focus team members towards achieving common organizational goals? How can unity of purpose and motivation be developed from a diversity of backgrounds and perspectives? How can leaders lead by example and collaborate with their teams to thrive through crisis and chaos?

Paul Falcone is uniquely qualified to help answer those questions. A renowned expert on effective hiring, performance management, and leadership development, he spent the last three decades in human resources executive roles at organizations including Nickelodeon, Paramount Pictures, NBCUniversal, Time Warner, and City of Hope Cancer Center Hospital.
