How can we be more adaptable as a leadership team?

In this Mike on the Mic episode, I dig into one of the most critical challenges leadership teams face today: adaptability. When the world changes—whether through global events, industry disruption, or internal shifts—how do you know when your plan no longer serves you? And what do you do about it?

I explore how to recognize the key signals that it's time to adapt, and share the structured rhythm I've seen work with my clients to build adaptability into their DNA—without losing focus or blowing with the wind. I walk through how your leadership team can build a culture that challenges assumptions, stays aligned, and doesn’t just react, but evolves purposefully.

Whether you’re a CEO or part of a leadership team, this episode offers actionable strategies for staying relevant, aligned, and ahead of the curve.
