Feb 3rd Topic: Handling Requests with Unrealistic Deadlines
Experiencing any of the below? Interested in learning additional ways to deal with the below? Or just want some community? Then the Feb 3rd call is for you!
You’re being asked to produce a deliverable in a timeline you know is absurd
You’re instantly doing mental gymnastics on how you’re going to “make it work”
You say yes to the request yet your chest tightens, your jaw clenches, and your stomach turns
You quietly absorb the risk knowing it’ll be on you to deliver it, no matter what it takes, even it means burning yourself out
You feel resentful such an unrealistic deadline was set and keep thinking “This was avoidable”
To gather in community with other change agents to expand your network, share expertise, grow your skills, and learn from others’ experiences on this topic.
There’s 200 change agents in the community, with 5-12 attending each call from different backgrounds (i.e. IT, biotech / pharma, environmental, social change, finance, coaching, consulting, etc.) and experience levels (i.e. entry level to C Suite). Scroll down below to see what attendees have had to say about the calls.

Here’s what other attendees have had to say:
“A nice reminder of approaches that can be used - including a reminder that the Energy Leadership Index (ELI) mindset / level I'm in will impact my ability to influence leadership. The most important thing I got out of today’s call is that influencing leadership is less about being right and more about aligning change with leaders’ priorities, language, and timing. My greatest surprise was how small, well-timed changes in framing and language can dramatically influence leadership buy-in. I really appreciated the conversation and the insights shared during the session. Thank you for creating such a welcoming and engaging space for meaningful dialogue. I look forward to staying connected and participating in future calls.” Attendees from Jan 6th “Getting Through to Leadership” Change Agent Community Call
“The most important thing I got out today’s call was confidence is I'll be fine even if they don’t like me. My greatest surprise from the call was being authentic is a choice. Thank you” - Attendees from Dec 9th “Being Authentic” Change Agent Community Call
“Better understanding resilience is the most important thing I got out of the call. I’m impressed by how well Rosanne captured the ways struggling to deal with uncertainty and unknowns can manifest. The most important thing I got out today’s call was a sense of community. I was surprised by the care and thoughtfulness of each change agent.. My greatest surprise from the call was the physical manifestation of the stress involved in dealing with uncertainty. The calls are very well run. The call struck a great balance. Thank you” - Attendees from Nov 11th “Dealing with Uncertainty and Unknowns” Change Agent Community Call
“Today’s call was a really interesting one and topic. The most important thing I got out of the call was there are so very many ways to address it. I really love the approach you have. Thank you for being there and for how insightful and supportive you are for me and everyone who attends these calls and your groups. Your skill is just superb, and I’m pretty fussy so you know you really are great. You’ve exceeded my expectations and are way beyond what most people can do. This is good. Thank you so much. The calls are great! Always well run and valuable. I was surprised that there weren't more people attending” -Attendees from Sep 16th “Accurately Perceiving Myself in How I Interact with Others” Change Agent Community Call
“The most important thing I got out of the call was scheduling time for myself regularly as a preventative measure to stay healthy and able to help others. I was surprised I know more about self-care than I thought I did. I need to watch for burnout signals and act to take care of me. Thank you” - Attendees from Jul 22nd “Self-Care” Change Agent Community Call
