Leadership on Tap: The Mess Inside - Leading with Resilient Intelligence

"You can't lead others through chaos if you can't lead yourself through your own."

This truth cuts right to the heart of resilient leadership. In this interactive session, Dr. Will Samson guides us through understanding "the mess inside" – the stories, emotions, and patterns that shape how we show up as leaders – and transforms it from invisible baggage into your training ground for resilient intelligence.

Through meaningful table discussions and peer-shared strategies, you'll explore how your internal narratives and emotions actually shape your leadership effectiveness. This isn't therapy – it's practical self-leadership that builds resilience from the inside out.
