“At OCBC, we encourage our employees to embody the nomadic mindset championed by Global Nomad and celebrated figure-skater, choreographer, and coach of Olympic figure-skating champions, Kevin Cottam, whose gems of wisdom resonated powerfully with everyone in attendance at The #GrowYourWay Show at our Grow Your Way: Expedition 2023.”
“We are migrating. Where we were is not where we are. We are evolving.”
Why Listen to Me?
Because, as a leadership coach and professional speaker, my passion is to dare your audience to evolve through adopting a Nomadic Mindset.
For over 40 years, I have choreographed, inspired, coached, and guided, world and Olympic figure skating champions and directed the 1988 Olympic Closing Ceremonies. I have acted as a changemaker by sharing my knowledge, methods and models (Nomadic Performance Rewiring) with leaders and organisations like Novartis, Club Med, and Givaudan. Now their executives and teams have a fresh perspective to successfully lead, be resilient in the face of adversity and uncertain times, expand and evolve their mindsets, and create the cultural transformation necessary to tackle the next evolution with courage, confidence, and a commitment to sustainable growth.
How did I discover this wisdom? I researched and spent time in nature with nomadic cultures in Mongolia, Kenya, Morocco, and Namibia while also interviewing over 100 corporate leaders. This is where, I discovered The Nomadic Mindset, the mindset corporate leaders agree is needed most for the next evolution.
You and your team will be transported on a uniquely colourful, story-packed journey, as I share with you learning points from my life experiences integrated with nomadic wisdom highly relevant and necessary for navigating the world’s uncertainties.
The fresh behaviours and pro-active adaptive strategies with tools and tips will assist you to change perspective escalating your leadership evolution. You will leave saying, “I want more of that.”
