In 2020, Survival of the fittest has taken on new meaning. With Coronavirus ravaging the globe and capitalism being challenged at its racially and socially inequitable roots, against a backdrop of climate change on the rise and an environment in decline, Next Level Conversations is a call to engaged leaders and change makers who are ready to do, or are already doing the work to create a world that works for everyone.

Whether your focus is leading your best life, developing your leadership or other leaders, or leaving a legacy for future generations to build on, this is a space for you to contemplate, connect and prepare yourself for action.

Next Level Conversations with your hosts elan Bailey, leadership coach and consultant, and Geoff Ayi-Bonte, clinical counsellor, leadership and organization development consultant.

Lifelong learning and living takes effort. Who said it didn’t? This week we share our gratitude for being alive in this moment, yes even with all the suffering and strife. And get into dialogue about the responsibility that we all have as human beings and as leaders to recognize the impact we’re having whether we choose to embrace the work we’re here to do or try to avoid it at the expense of others.

What’s your fitness level for doing the work and showing up fully to conversations about race and humanity? In this episode, we explore the various perspectives on doing the work, who’s showing up to the table and how. What happens when we create space and language for doing the work without setting clear intention. And how to start whether you feel ready or not.
