Regaining Forward Momentum When What Used to Work… No Longer Does

In this episode, we sit down with Dave Schoof, former counterintelligence specialist and now ICF Master Certified Coach, to explore what leaders can do when the strategies that once made them successful suddenly stop working. 

During our time together, we discuss:

• What a “metacrisis” actually feels like for leaders today why many are experiencing a growing sense of existential unease.
• Why the old maps are failing and early warning signs that a leader is stuck in outdated patterns
• The Pivot Methodology: a framework for making a 45-degree shift — not a 180 — to create space for curiosity, emergence, sense‑making, and creativity.
• How to tap into new and additional forms of intelligence
• Honoring past success without becoming trapped by it 
• Why curiosity and humility are now leadership superpowers
• How leaders can move from time management to energy management
• How culture gets shaped by what leaders pay attention to, ignore, reinforce, or shut down — and how psychological safety determines creativity and adaptability.
• How to influence upward.
