One of the laws of leadership we embrace in the Vistage community is the pursuit of excellence. It’s a challenging, continuous journey that requires hard work and determined attention. To help us in that endeavor, we have asked James Clear, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Atomic Habits, top-booked keynote speaker and Founder of Habits Academy, to be our next featured speaker.

When you want to see dramatic improvement in your personal and professional life, Clear says the natural impulse is to set big goals and attempt big steps to improve. However, he maintains that taking big steps often results in failure or only temporary gains. You rarely see the permanent results you want. The key to successful change, he argues, is in small habits.

In this exclusive talk, James Clear focuses on the science of small habits, how they work, and how their effects compound over time. Through his research and personal stories, you will come away with practical strategies you can immediately apply in your personal and professional life.
