A crisis is a bad place to try to discover your mission, vision, values, and culture-and these days we are all in a constant state of crisis, requiring innovation. 

 

No one knows that better or in a more nuanced way than Dr. Mayer, whose leadership in times of crisis spans over 25 years, both in the NFL and in national disasters. 

 

Others have written books on dealing with crisis, but Dr. Mayer has richly lived a life of leadership in crisis, from the Pentagon on 9/11 through the concussion and COVID crises in the NFL, to the battlefields of Ukraine. 

Coaching

Dr. Mayer works with executives, teams, and organizations to build leadership capacity rooted in trust, accountability, and action—especially when conditions are uncertain or complex.

Innovation at the Speed of Trust

To lead meaningful change, leaders must master three essential skills:


  1. Rethink leadership and change in fundamentally new ways

  2. Act on insights within one week—or momentum is lost

  3. Innovate yourself and your team, because the way we’re working… isn’t working

Consulting

As Duke’s Coach K said about Dr. Mayer’s work, “What is clearly ‘priceless’ is Dr. Mayer’s perspective on relationship-based leadership, his passion for doing rather than talking, and embracing the fact that we are all leaders-no matter where we are in our careers or lives.”

Key Takeaways

To lead change requires 3 essential skills:


  1. Think about leadership, leading, and change in a radically different way

  2. Act on those insights withing a week-otherwise you won’t act at all

  3. Innovate yourself and your team, because the way we’re working…isn’t working

Topics

Leadership vs. Leading:

“Leadership is worthless… because it is just what you say—and anyone can say anything. But Leading is priceless.


Empowered Self-Leadership:

“The leader you are looking for is… you!”

Leadership is not reserved for a chosen few. It starts with personal accountability and the courage to act with purpose.


The Wisdom Within the Collective:

“The answers are not above us—in our teams or families—they are within and among us.”​


The Boss vs. The Leader

“The Boss is someone who thinks he is the most important person in the room. The Leader is someone who's job is to make everyone else feel like they are the most important person in the room.
