Julia Taylor | CEO & Founder of GeekPack

As a leader, you’re expected to have all the answers, keep your team motivated, and navigate challenges with confidence. But what happens when the landscape keeps shifting - when uncertainty, market shifts, or workplace disruptions make it feel impossible to lead with clarity?

In today’s fast-changing world, the best leaders aren’t the ones who have all the answers - they’re the ones who build teams that can thrive in the unknown. The real job of leadership isn’t just about decision-making; it’s about fostering resilience, adaptability, and a culture of problem-solving so your team can succeed no matter what challenges arise.

In this session, Julia Taylor reveals science-backed leadership strategies that help professionals lead through change, strengthen their teams, and create cultures where resilience is the norm - not the exception.

• Why emotional agility is a leader’s greatest asset (and how to build it)
• The Resilient Culture Blueprint – how top leaders create workplaces that thrive in change
• How to model resilience and self-regulation so your team follows suit

By the end, you’ll walk away with a clear leadership playbook - a roadmap to building a team that not only survives uncertainty but thrives in it.

When life or business throws unexpected challenges your way, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and stuck, believing resilience is something you either have or you don’t. Many professionals assume that grit and willpower are what separate those who push through adversity from those who struggle. But what if resilience wasn’t about willpower at all?

The truth is, resilience is built through systems, not strength alone. It’s not about making one big change - it’s about the small, daily actions that rewire your brain, strengthen your response to setbacks, and create lasting mental toughness.

In this session, Julia Taylor introduces her 1% Resilience Rule, a science-backed framework rooted in habit formation, behavioral psychology, and micro-improvements. You’ll learn how to build resilience as a skill, not a personality trait, and make it second nature through simple, repeatable habits.

• Why small, consistent actions outperform motivation when it comes to resilience
• The 1% Resilience Rule – a step-by-step framework for long-term mental strength
• How to create systems that make resilience automatic, even in high-pressure situations

By the end of this session, you won’t just understand resilience - you’ll have a daily system to build it, sustain it, and apply it to every area of your life.

Setbacks in business or career can fool you into thinking you’ll never regain the momentum you need to reach your goals. When things don’t go as planned, self-doubt creeps in, and it’s easy to wonder: What if this is the end of the road?

But what if your setbacks are not roadblocks, but stepping stones? What if they’re actually setting you up for a stronger comeback?

Resilient leaders and entrepreneurs don’t just survive adversity - they use it as a launchpad for greater success. The difference isn’t luck; it’s how they reframe challenges, adapt under pressure, and apply strategic resilience techniques.

In this session, Julia Taylor reveals five science-backed strategies to turn adversity into an advantage. Drawing from research in growth mindset, cognitive flexibility, and emotional mastery, she’ll show you how to reframe obstacles, navigate uncertainty, and build a resilience system that fuels long-term success.

• The “Challenge Orientation” method – why resilient professionals see obstacles differently
• How to reframe failure so it fuels, not derails, your progress
• Tactical strategies to bounce back faster after rejection, loss, or uncertainty

By the end, you won’t just feel motivated - you’ll have a clear, actionable roadmap to turn obstacles into opportunities for growth and success.

Change is no longer something we prepare for - it’s something we live in. Industries are shifting, technology is evolving, and uncertainty is now the only certainty. The strategies that got you here won’t necessarily keep you ahead. So how do you ensure that you and your business remain relevant, resilient, and ready for what’s next?

The key isn’t just working harder - it’s thinking differently. The most successful professionals aren’t the ones who avoid change; they’re the ones who embrace adaptability, navigate uncertainty with confidence, and develop the mental flexibility to evolve - before they’re forced to.

In this session, Julia Taylor shares her science-backed approach to building resilience in the face of rapid change. You’ll learn practical strategies to future-proof your success, whether you’re leading a team, running a business, or navigating a career pivot.

• The mindset shift that turns uncertainty into a competitive advantage
• How to rewire your brain for adaptability and innovation
• Practical strategies to thrive in disruption - before you’re forced to

By the end of this session, you’ll have a clear, proactive roadmap to embrace change, take action, and stay ahead of the curve - no matter what the future holds.
