Death to "It Depends" Leadership

How many of us have been in a business or project launch meeting and details of what needs to be done start to be thrown around and then the "leader" in the room gets asked a question, and the gut-wrenching response comes back, "Well, It depends." Well, thank you "Captain obvious!" is what we think, well, maybe just me. How many projects or decisions have been stalled by "It depends"? If we as leaders know so much about the path to improved organizational performance, why is it so difficult to get there?

This interactive session incorporates small group and large group think-tank discussions on how we can close the gap between Knowing versus Doing. We will begin the work to put to death the DeFacto "It Depends" and build a healthy living environment for decision-making and action-taking.

Testimonials (7)
  • Lawrence is a rock solid servant leader. I had the honour of having him as a podcast guest as we instantly connected as service, listening, guiding, and getting to the heart of PEOPLE are what's important to him. He focuses on relationships, community, and human connection to make any team collaborate better. He is a master at human potential, and I found myself unpacking every gem he spoke about on my podcast. He's generous with his knowledge and time and I would highly, HIGHLY.. HIGHLY... recommend Lawrence as a coach, speaker, and trainer. He is the real deal.
    Lisa Pezik
  • Lawrence is a great teacher! He brings drives and charisma wherever he goes. A no-BS coach that stops you from making up excuses for yourself. He brings the best out of people and would be an asset to any team. I am grateful for the time I have spent with Lawrence.
    Abdulrahman Alroumi
  • Lawrence is a master motivator and educator. In the workplace, Lawrence influenced me and others in our organization via a number of multi-day training sessions on topics from Interpersonal Relationships to Public Speaking. Overall, Lawrence has made and will continue to make a significant impact in any tasks he is challenged with.
    Tyreese Brewington
  • I had the great pleasure of working with Lawrence while we were colleagues at Printpack. Lawrence's approach to the human side of people/ leadership development is best in class. His military background provides him with rigorous process mindset needed to encourage and push those he works with, while his humble demeanor allows him to connect on a personal level. I enjoyed working, learning, and growing alongside Lawrence. Wishing him all the best in his new endeavor and encouraged to see someone step out from the status quo to follow their passion.
    Randy Troutman
  • One of my personal goals is to work with Lawrence Henderson again. Lawrence is a warrior among men; a straight shooter who guides leaders into new behaviors while putting himself on the line to give you the truth. He is not afraid of complexity, has decades of leadership experience in multiple roles and has held direct accountability in his hands - so he knows what the "hot" seat requires. As a leadership team coach/facilitator, Lawrence is a strategic thinker who can read team dynamics and facilitate/shift personal agendas to better meet the operational objectives of a group. He is "that" spark of energy that creates meaningful, quantifiable change. Lawrence will show you wisdom, humor, and curiosity to help you or your team(s) identify and connect with the values and goals you need to affect real - and lasting - change. I look forward to the day when I get to work with Lawrence again.
    Paul Tripp
  • Lawrence is an absolute Rock Star!! His passion for improving and helping people to achieve their maximum potential is contagious and very impressive. He is one of the most sincere, professional, and thoughtful people I have ever had the pleasure to know and work with. Lawrence has the unique ability to help people bring out the best in themselves.
    Ed Hinely
  • Lawrence is definitely a leading authority and subject matter expert in Organizational Development and Strategic Management. As the Board Chair of Writing Our Wrongs, Inc., he leads our team by being at the helm of serving others, committing to excellence, and by assisting to build the team we need for the successful growth of our nonprofit organization. He exemplifies servant-leadership, and I fully endorse his work in nonprofit leadership & development.
