Let's cut through the noise—leadership right now feels impossible.

Remote work chaos. AI disruption. Gen Z expectations. Millennial burnout. Boomer wisdom gaps. Talent shortages everywhere except where you need them. Teams questioning everything while you're expected to have all the answers. Work-life integration that feels more like work-life collision.

And here's the kicker: you're supposed to inspire confidence while secretly wondering if you're completely winging it.

Sound brutally familiar?

If you're a VP, Managing Director, or senior leader drowning in "figure it out" demands, this day is your lifeline.

You've been handed the impossible: do more with less, move faster with fewer people, keep everyone motivated while your own tank is running on fumes. The pressure is relentless, the playbook is outdated, and most days you feel like you're building the plane while flying it.

Here's what nobody tells you: Every leader worth their salt feels this way right now.

Stop pretending you have it all figured out.

Leadership Unscripted isn't another polished presentation where someone tells you what leadership should look like. This is raw, real-time group coaching with leaders who are knee-deep in the same chaos you are.

This is peer-driven. Cross-industry. No BS.

When you register, you'll share an actual challenge you're wrestling with—the messy, complicated, keeps-you-up-at-night kind—personally, professionally, or both. We'll build the entire experience around what's really happening in your world, not some theoretical case study.

Led by Christy Uffelman, CEO & Founder of EDGE Leadership, you'll get practical tools, unvarnished wisdom, and real-time feedback from leaders who understand exactly what you're going through.

What will you actually walk away with?

• Strategies that work in the real world—not just in leadership books.
• How to navigate constant uncertainty without burning out your team (or yourself)
• Tactics for managing multi-generational teams who want different things
• Tools for cutting through overwhelm and leading with genuine purpose
• Insights from leaders facing identical challenges—what's working, what's failing spectacularly, and what's worth trying next

Most importantly, a reset on how you show up—for your team, your organization, and your own sanity.

This isn't leadership development. This is leadership survival—and it's exactly what you need right now.

Show up with your real challenges. Leave with actual solutions, genuine support, and a clear path forward that you can implement immediately.

Not in six months. Not after the next quarterly review. NOW.

Ready to stop going it alone?

Register now. Your future self will thank you.
