What exactly is Strategic Unrulyness?

Meet Kim Bourlotchi!

Kim is an International Keynote Speaker, C-Suite Strategist, Creator of Strategic Unruliness™ who helps leaders break rules that no longer serve them and lead with Radical Clarity.

Most leaders aren’t held back by a lack of drive — They’re held back by invisible rules they don’t even realize they’re following.

Kim doesn’t help leaders fit in, but break out — and build what’s next.

Kim shares:
- how to strategically challenge the status quo
- how to stop, shrinking, start disrupting and owning the room

- why do conformists never seem to win?
- start being unruly without losing your job
- how to bring your culture and full self to work

...and so much more!
