If there’s one thing we can all count on, it’s that something is about to change.

It is our response to ongoing change that dictates our success. So how do we as leaders inspire the kind of mindset and build the kind of teams that drive our organizations to adapt, overcome and win as ONE in the face of times of extreme challenge and change?

This unique and fast-paced 30 minute multimedia keynote is inspired by a Fast Company Magazine feature story entitled “Extreme Teamwork” about Robyn’s World Champion Adventure Racing team.

Robyn shares the 5 Secrets to Extreme Teamwork that allowed her team to be the most prolific and consistent World Champions in the sport, lessons that are easily applied to the adventures in our business lives.

Robyn’s most requested keynote is based on her best-selling book, How Winning Works: 8 Essential Leadership Lessons From The Toughest Teams On Earth. Robyn’s innovative team-building strategies offer practical tools to adapt, overcome, and win as ONE, against all odds.
