Hire Chris to speak at your event.
Healthy organizations work a lot like healthy ecosystems. Chris Lee is a conservation biologist, and he brings that way of seeing to the stage, helping leaders build workplaces where people actually thrive. His talks are honest, funny, and full of stories from the field. People leave with something they can use on Monday.
Four talks. Pick the one that fits your room.
Take This Job and…Love It! (Keynote or Workshop - our most popular talk)
We chose this work to make a difference, and then the daily grind wears us down. Chris uses the Thrive Tree Framework to give leaders actionable strategies to re-energize their teams and create a workplace people want to be part of everyday.
Evolved to Thrive (Keynote)
Ever wonder when you’ll truly find “success”? Chris looks into our evolutionary history to show what’s missing from our workplaces and careers. It isn’t what society tells us we’re missing.
Squirrels Don’t Build Dams (Breakout Session)
What if we fit the work to the people? Using squirrels, trees, and water, this session explores what nature can teach us about leading and building resilient teams.
Controlled Burn (Keynote or Breakout Session)
Disturbance is coming. On purpose. Ecologists use fire and flood as management tools, and Chris shows how those principles apply to leading through change.
