Topics for Stephen Scott Johnson

  • Emergent
    Conscious leadership and culture
    Embracing change in today’s complex workplace demands extraordinary agility, acumen and intuition. Evolving organisational culture from the traditional command and-control reactive mode of business to an adaptive and interdependent ecosystem, demands new skills and new ways of working. EMERGENT unpacks how you do that in an powerful keynote for leaders who want to make a difference.
  • Artisans of Connection
    Create a culture customers love & employees feel proud of
    Communication is faster, simpler and more intimate. Connection is currency. From the radically transparent approaches at leading start ups to the notoriously secretive practices of Apple - cultures vary from collaborative to scripted regulatory siloes and everything in-between. To be successful, brands need to stop selling and start inspiring. Are you connection-ready?
    This keynote is for leaders with a change imperative:
    • Pinpoint the cultural mode of your business and identify blind spots that inhibit growth and potential
    • Move quickly and decisively in anticipating and taking advantage of opportunity, while collaborating to avoid negative and catastrophic consequences of change
    • Learn effective strategies to meet employee demands for autonomy and individual empowerment
    • Innovate with and not merely for stakeholders, guiding effective and sustainable change
  • Ignite Your Customer Tribe™ 
    Spark a movement
    Every sales, marketing and frontline manager on the planet wishes they had a ‘sixth-sense’ for how to fuel demand that generates profitable, sustainable growth. This keynote empowers them with CATALYST - the engagement system behind the world’s most successful brand movements and enterprise communities. Equip your business with the essential system, skills and techniques that create enduring value with customers and stakeholders.
    IGNITE YOUR CUSTOMER TRIBE™ equips organisations with:
    • A revolutionary system to catalyse engagement & referral
    • Proven strategies that boost Net Promoter score
    • Tools and techniques to transform the reach, scale and impact of mainstream media and advertising

  • Co-Create Academy™
    Culture of innovation by design
    Finding effective ways to turn the institutional ship around while maintaining business-as-usual, has become the conversation of our time. Companies seeking new competitive advantages are recognising co-creation as an effective way to forge longterm
    sustainability. It represents a paradigm shift in how they innovate. It enables a progressive evolution from the command-and-control mode of business towards an interdependent model and enduring value for all. There is a clear imperative to transform, and yet the paradox of protecting intellectual assets and the bottom line (for fear of letting go of control) results in paralysing
    levels of inertia. Learn how to engage authentically and contextually with stakeholders, and co-create products and services that make a difference.
    What this keynote delivers:
    • Equip leaders and innovators with confidence and capability to co-create with customers & stakeholders
    • Engage authentically and contextually with community to co-create products and services they actually need
    • Fuel fresh thinking and learn effective ways to inform and extend core product expertise from an outside-in innovation perspective
    • Leverage community intelligence in ways not possible with traditional corporate innovation methodologies
    • Embed co-creation in your culture so that it becomes a daily way of working
