Based on Victoria’s Wall Street Journal bestselling book, Risk Forward, this keynote is like no other.
We are living in an era when conditions are in constant flux, people are experiencing internal angst, and uncertainty prevails. Change is increasing at unprecedented levels. Victoria’s counterintuitive approach to all this is riveting, surprising, and effective.
