Keynote speaker Vered Kogan, CSP®, helps individuals, teams and organizations get unstuck and adapt to change with confidence, clarity and flexibility.
Signature Keynote
How to navigate change with confidence and ease
When change arrives, whether it’s new technology, shifting priorities, or a major life event, it’s natural to feel stuck. The strategies that got us here no longer work, and we’re not sure what comes next.
Feeling stuck isn’t a setback. It’s often a sign that we’ve outgrown old patterns and something new is ready to emerge.
In this keynote, Vered Kogan, CSP®, change expert and co-author with Marshall Goldsmith of Unstuck, shares a clear map of what to expect during transitions and offers simple tools to help us steady ourselves, support others, and keep moving forward.
Participants leave energized and equipped with practical tools to turn stuck moments into upward momentum.
