Transfluence

How do you have transformative influence on people in today's complex leadership environment? Lead with Transfluence. As the former CEO of a global enterprise, Walt Rakowich brings a real-world perspective to leadership that's based on experience, not theory. Walt guided Prologis, the world's largest private owner of industrial warehouses, through the turbulent waters of the Great Recession, leading the company back to prominence after it nearly sank into bankruptcy. During the course of that turn-around and in the years since, Walt realized leaders today must lean into timeless values and principles, but with a fresh perspective on the new realities of our leadership climates. The modern leadership environment exists at the convergence of three distinct and dynamic climates: the climates of access, diversity, and acceleration. On their own or in the aggregate, those climates are producing significant opportunities and tensions that will challenge leaders for generations. With a fundamental understanding of these climates, leaders can develop a selfless approach to leadership that withstands the toughest storms. Transfluence shows leaders how they can have transformative influence by overcoming their fears and pride, building transparency into their leadership, developing a strong core of authentic values, and passionately pursuing a meaningful purpose. When leaders do this, they can seize opportunities, embrace challenges, and make their organizations and communities greater than ever.
