The Map is Not the Terrain: Charting a New Course for Leadership
Jamie Clarke knows a lot about leadership and uncertainty. He has spent his entire adult life embracing the unknown. From his days as a world-renowned adventure leader and elite climber to becoming a successful business builder and professional sports consultant to a Stanley Cup winning hockey team, Jamie has navigated through countless high pressure and challenging landscapes. What is always certain, yet finds individuals and teams consistently unprepared for is this: Uncertainty leads to indecision. Indecision leads to fear. Fear leads to chaos. Chaos ends in failure.
This program is more than 30 years in the making. It takes you inside the mindset and the leadership qualities that build team cultures that don’t shrink from uncertainty, but succeed when others fail. What to do when your terrain map no longer works? These cultures are everything from teams of business professionals, expeditions struggling to survive negative 70 degree blizzards in the death zone of 25,000 feet, or professional sports teams finding their collective way to break through past failures and become champions.
With an infectious sense of humor and palpable, authentic passion, Jamie challenges his audiences to think differently about success, failure, hard work and fear. In his visually stunning and always charismatic and inspiring style, audiences will learn how to:
- Adapt to forces outside of one’s control.
- Uphold one’s mission despite the unknowns and the lack of perfect information.
- Learn from failure quickly and adjust your plans in real-time.
- Conquer fear through focus and practice.
- Reframe leadership through the lenses of trust, humility, reliance and empathy.
