Turning Uncertainty into Opportunity: Leading and Thriving Through Change
Change doesn’t have to be chaotic or threatening. When approached with clarity, empathy, and strategy, uncertainty can become a powerful launchpad for innovation, collaboration, and resilience.
This keynote helps attendees reframe their views of change, shifting from resistance to readiness. By exploring the human side of change, participants will uncover how emotions, mindset, and communication shape their ability to adapt and lead. Whether you’re an executive driving organizational transformation, a manager supporting your team, or an employee navigating disruption, this talk offers accessible strategies that work at every level.
Attendees will walk away with the confidence and clarity to face change not as a disruption, but as a doorway to growth.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand why change feels threatening and how to shift toward opportunity thinking
- Learn practical tools to manage uncertainty with resilience and emotional agility
- Discover how to foster trust and engagement during times of transition

About the Speaker

I'm Jevon Wooden — a transformational speaker, executive coach, and leadership consultant dedicated to helping organizations build high-performing, emotionally intelligent cultures.
My journey hasn’t been typical: from almost serving seven years in prison to becoming a Bronze Star recipient and U.S. Army veteran, I’ve experienced the power of transformation firsthand.
I’ve earned multiple graduate degrees, launched my own consulting firm, and been fortunate to have my work featured in Forbes, Entrepreneur, Inc. Magazine, and on the Fast Company Executive Board.
I combine emotional intelligence and data-driven strategies to help leaders like you unlock their full potential, reduce turnover, and create cultures that people are proud to be a part of.
