Speaking

“Engaging”  “Relevant”  “Motivating”  “Immediately Actionable” 

These are the words audiences consistently use to describe the keynote speeches and interactive seminars conducted by CEO and founder, Cali Williams Yost and the FSG/WLF team.

We inspire and teach:

  • C-Suite leaders how to unleash the broad strategic power of work flexibility.
  • Human Resources how to co-own and create a culture of work flexibility.
  • Managers how to implement and use work flexibility to solve problems and grab opportunities.
  • Teams how to collaborate, communicate and coordinate with each other for flexible work success.
  • Individuals how to capture work flexibility and use it to manage their unique work+life fit, day-to-day and at major life transitions. 

We answer the questions at the intersection of strategic work flexibility for business and work+life fit for people. For example: 

  • Strategic work flexibility: How can it help me run my business and manage my people better and smarter?
  • Culture of work flexibility: How to make it more than a “feel good” program?
  • Preparing people for flex success: How do people partner with the business?
  • Manager skills and tools: What do they need to make work flexibility succeed on the front lines?
  • Work+life “fit,” not balance: Why does language matter?
  • Work flexibility is an "everyone" issue: Why must we stop making it women’s issue?
