How Leaders Can Craft a Meaningful Life

Thursday, December 15, 2022 8:00 a.m. - 9:30 a.m. PST

How Leaders Can Craft a Meaningful Life

Charles R. Scott, a 14-year veteran of Intel Corporation and co-founder of Team See Possibilities, explores how to create a meaningful life that encompasses more than just a professional title. 

Charles believes the answer to the question, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” is the work of a lifetime.

 

 

What will you learn from this workshop on leadership wellness and work/ life balance?  

During this event, you’ll receive tips on effective leadership skills, handling naysayers, and developing healthy work environments. They are also guided through three interactive exercises designed to:

 

  1. Offer insights on ways to grow from loss
  2. Improve workplace performance while simultaneously increasing leisure time, and
  3. Identify and harness the sparks of vitality that live within each of us

 

This Climb Event is structured around three modules, each with an interactive exercise:

 

Module 1 – Obstacles and Growth: Sharing anecdotes from cycling over 7,000 miles with his young children across Japan, Iceland, Europe and the U.S., and from guiding the first blind runner to cross the Grand Canyon and back nonstop, Charles offers a unique perspective on leadership, naysayers and the sometimes unexpected benefits that can come from loss.

 

Module 2 – The Secret to Optimal Performance: Charles shares the hard-won secrets of success from a world-renowned professional marathoner and, in a unique and provocative twist, applies those principles to the workplace. This module often stimulates lively discussion about practical actions business people can take to work more efficiently and with greater satisfaction.

 

Module 3 – What Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up? Charles builds on this age-old question, guiding participants through creative exercises intended to identify opportunities to inject vitality into their professional lives.
