Following their 2023 keynote and book Love As A Business Strategy, the bestselling authors are back with a bold new story (and book): Love As A Change Strategy.

In a world where change feels constant and exhausting, what if the key to thriving isn’t more control—but more love?
In this provocative and practical session, the authors unpack a radical new approach: embedding love, empathy, and accountability into every phase of change.

Through real-world examples and actionable tools, you’ll discover that love isn’t soft—it’s the strongest, smartest strategy for driving lasting organizational and personal transformation.

Attendees will leave energized with:

A new lens for viewing disruption as an opportunity for deeper connection and impact.

Simple change principles leaders can utilize to maximize change efforts in every area of business.

A blueprint for building change-ready cultures grounded in humanity, not fear.
