www.theserenitycollective.com/thriving
2020 has well and truly arrived with a bang! We’re already experiencing fast-
paced change, uncertainty and major challenges on a global level. But with
that comes new opportunities for transformation, new energy and courage
to do things BETTER. A new opportunity to THRIVE.
How will we get there?
At the end of 2019, we sat down with Senior Leaders from organisations
across Australia to discover what it will take for our teams and workplaces to
thrive in this next decade.
The conversations were profound, uplifting and inspiring.
5 fundamental ‘Keys to Thrive’ emerged:
Intentional, Courageous Leadership
Creating Inclusive Cultures of Belonging
In the following pages, we’ll delve further into these pivotal 5 areas to
