Keynote: Finding the Work-Life Balance of Business, Body, and Soul
Darryl Cross, Intapp
From the moment an offer of employment is extended, professionals are challenged to prove their worth to their colleagues, clients, and leadership. A nose well-worn down on the grindstone becomes a badge of honor that they wear proudly. The solution is building collaborative teams held together by trust. But, how do you do so when lawyers, practice leaders, and business executives are involved?
Darryl Cross will address how to do so by looking to the heavens: a live discussion with 3 time space shuttle astronaut, Mr. Mark Polansky. His experience in selecting, training, and leading high performance teams in the most challenging of circumstances has direct connections on how to do so back here on Earth. There will also be a 20 minute Q&A session for all attendees to participate.
Darryl and Mark will show how insisting on going it alone is detrimental to the individual as well as those who are depending on you. Even the most talented person will break down from the constant stress of dynamic, volatile environments. Cultivating wellness is the process of achieving mental, physical and career well-being. And, it takes a team.
