Most organizations tend to treat leadership as a skill – something singular, specific and focal based on principles of the industrial era. As such schools and corporations try to learn leadership in the same way students learn algebra in school – by sending leaders to courses where they learn the skills required to be “a leader.” This approach does not create successful leaders in a world that is moving faster than ever before. Dr. Esther Wojcicki will distinguish management from leadership and share strategies for future-proofing your leadership skills.

As more corporations adopt remote working strategies there is a need to re-imagine the future of work in the Digital Age. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated organizations into the Age of Digital Transformation. We are experiencing the viral spread of fear and companies reinventing themselves with this new reality. In change management, organizational leaders and consultants put a lot of emphasis on things like clear vision, incentive systems, and metrics. This approach does not work to build a successful, resilient and future-proof enterprise. Dr. Wojcicki helps organizations build successful, resilient businesses by using her TRICK framework — scaling trust, respect, independence, collaboration and kindness. Dr. Wojcicki’s corporate training program goes deep into interpersonal interactions and how technology integration can help organizations be successful with remote work. In this series, participants are empowered with tools that help them focus on building long-term relationships, not short-term transactions.

How can leaders overcome chaos in uncertain times? One of the world’s most admired leaders, Dr. Wojcicki lays out the secrets to cultivating effective and ethical leaders in her new book, How to Raise Successful People: Simple Lessons for Radical Results. Her tried-and-tested formula boils down to TRICK, a catchy acronym that stands for trust, respect, independence, collaboration, and kindness. In this series, Dr. Wojcicki covers the following topics:

  • Navigating ambiguity is an essential skill for uncertainty in all its forms.
  • Building deep trust and fostering an adaptive team culture starts with knowing the strengths each team member has and leveraging them appropriately.
  • Embracing new ways of working should be accompanied by new tools and KPIs – simply adapting old ways to be “digital” keeps us from true transformation.
  • Specific strengths and weaknesses are not relegated to certain roles and levels, so transparency and humility between team members at all levels is vital for success.
