Holy Shift!: Moving Your Company Forward to the Future of Work
BONUS AFTER-HOURS EVENT: Attendees who purchase a copy of Holy Shift! from FAN’s partner bookseller The Book Stall are invited to attend an AFTER-HOURS event hosted by Michelson and Alter that will start immediately after the webinar. Details on the webinar registration page.
Dan Michelson’s new book, Holy Shift!: Moving Your Company Forward to the Future of Work, takes you on a fascinating journey to the heart of the single biggest and fastest shift in how we work and live in history. Readers and leaders at every level of an organization will discover practical ideas and actions that address three big, thorny questions: How did we get here, where do we go from here, and how do we get there?
A visionary CEO with a track-record of building world-class company cultures, Michelson combines a reflection of how we got to now with research on how companies are managing this moment to create a roadmap in the form of a strategic framework and pragmatic playbook. Holy Shift! maps three simple steps to create momentum to move your company towards the future of work: 1) See the Shift; 2) Shift Your Mindset; and 3) Make Shift Happen.
Michelson is the founder and CEO of InCommon, a “for purpose” company that helps companies turn culture into a strategy that drives productivity and engagement. From 2012 to 2022, he served as the CEO of Strata, a 500-person tech company with a mission to help heal healthcare. Prior to Strata, he spent a decade as the chief marketing officer of Allscripts, a global leader in healthcare technology.
Michelson will be in conversation with Sarah Alter, a national thought leader and role model in the workplace, serving for six years as the CEO of NextUp, the largest network of executive women in the country. Alter’s previous experience includes executive roles at Staples, Discover, and General Growth Properties. She has been appointed to serve three terms on the Illinois State Lottery Advisory Board.
This event suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded and available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel.
