Dr. Matt Kutz shares his journey from athletic training to leadership development, introducing his concept of contextual intelligence and how leaders can thrive in complex environments by adapting their approach to each unique situation.

• Athletic trainers work with high-performing individuals who constantly strive for improvement, creating a mindset that translates well to organizational leadership
• Leaders need multiple leadership styles and must learn to diagnose the context to determine which style is appropriate for each situation
• The 3D thinking framework helps leaders consider hindsight (past), insight (present), and foresight (future) when making decisions
• Great leaders understand the difference between excellence and perfectionism—excellence is attainable while perfectionism is paralyzing
• The EPIC framework—Excellence, Perception, Inspiration, Compassion—offers a pathway to overcome mediocrity
• Creating buy-in from team members at appropriate levels multiplies organizational effectiveness
• Leadership maturity involves giving team members decision-making opportunities appropriate to their experience and role

Check out Dr. Matt Kutz's new book "Becoming Epic: A Remedy for Mediocrity" coming out in August, and visit matthewkutz.com for articles and more resources on contextual intelligence.
