What is change, if not a struggle toward survival? Addressing our own survival imperatives will make the difference between whether or not we're ultimately successful. Join us as Dr. Jeff Kaplan and Tara Thomas-Gettman discuss how change is now required and how leaders can learn to take advantage of it. Plus, hear from Alyssa Nolte about Brené Brown's recent research on vulnerability and effective leadership.

For as common of a concept as leadership, the practical and tactical definitions are nearly infinite. Yet, each of us seems to be able to recognize it when we see it. So what is leadership? How does your answer compare to others? Listen in as Dr. Kaplan and Tara Thomas-Gettman examine what leadership means and why we need leadership more than ever. Join us this week as we review the many definitions of leadership and make the harrowing attempt to define it.

You have a choice - embrace change now or feel blindsided when it hits. 

Change can feel like walking point to point through time, from then to now, without ever experiencing the time in between. You're left asking yourself, when did this happen? Think about a transcontinental flight. You wake up on the other side of the world, having flown across the Atlantic while you slept. The time, intelligence, focus, effort, and other resources are necessary to make that overnight trip, and it's something people do every day. 

Change is like reading the news to learn that everyday people have become the first group of everyday astronauts. The first to successfully visit the stars and return home, and you realize that you're witnessing a bold new chapter in the history of humanity.

But what happens when change impacts a single family, a single person? Join us as we help each other cope with future shock and go forth into a world that threatens to rewrite reality in the blink of an eye. 

The future starts now.

We can see your future, and we can prove it. Skeptical? Don't be. Jeff isn't claiming paranormal abilities or unique gifts in this episode of Willing 2 Win. Instead, he's spent the last 30 years thinking about the future of you. Are you ready for the future that is coming at us full of possibility and hope? If you're willing to think differently, work differently and change at the speed of now, then you're Willing 2 Win.

Future Shock is real, and every one of us has experienced it somehow - the reality-shattering stress and disorientation experienced by people who have to process too much change too quickly. If we don't build the tools we need to operate in a changing environment, we are putting ourselves, the people we love, our communities and our very way of life at risk. How are you helping others cope in an ever-changing environment? How are you dealing with the changes in your world? 

If you've already started thinking about it, now is a great time to join the Willing 2 Win conversation and share what you've learned. If you haven't considered your role in the future yet, now's a great time to join the conversation. The future starts now for those willing to win. If you're willing: willing to think differently, to work differently, to change at the speed of now, then you're willing to win.

We're all living in a world that's constantly changing, where if we don't keep up we'll fall behind and lose touch with everything around us. It's more important than ever to stay relevant and be ourselves. That's what Willing 2 Win is all about. It's about coming together in new ways, like this show, creating new ways of thinking, working, and doing and achieving together. There's no guarantee that we won't lose touch with who we are and end up in a future we don't recognize or don't belong. It's all up to you.

COVID-19 changed nearly every aspect of our lives. Perhaps nowhere is this more apparent than in higher education. As higher education leaders grappled with their new normal, it became clear that every institution would have a different approach to ensuring a consistent student experience. We caught up with the thought leaders in higher education at the annual Educause conference in late 2021 to hear the best practices about remote teaching and learning, cyber security, and the urgency to embrace a diverse audience with non-traditional expectations.

Hear from top administrators from colleges and universities such as UMBC, Rutgers, North Carolina Central University, and the University of Illinois Chicago.

Plus, hear from technology OEMs rising to the occasion to partner with higher education to deliver on the promise of the student experience.

Sales - the profession most people love to hate. The problem? Everyone is in sales. Looking for the love of your life? You're in sales. Want a promotion? You're in sales. In this episode, you'll learn how to create new relationships, maximize your existing connections and create the future of your dreams. Products, services, jobs, houses come and go. Relationships are forever. The best salespeople are great at communicating who they are, their vision, and how to make things happen. Plus, in this episode of Willing 2 Win, you'll meet two of our World's Best Sellers, Nick Hamilton and Kate Crauwels.
