Biography

Laura Gassner Otting helps people get “unstuck” — and achieve extraordinary results.

Through Limitless Possibility, Laura collaborates with change agents, entrepreneurs, investors, leaders, and donors to push past the doubt and indecision that consign great ideas to limbo. She delivers strategic thinking, well-honed wisdom, and catalytic perspective informed by decades of navigating change across the start-up, nonprofit, political, and philanthropic landscapes.

Laura’s 25-year resume is defined by her entrepreneurial edge. She served as a Presidential Appointee in Bill Clinton’s White House, helping shape AmeriCorps; left a leadership role at respected nonprofit search firm, Isaacson, Miller, to expand the startup ExecSearches.com; and founded and ran the Nonprofit Professionals Advisory Group, which partnered with the full gamut of mission driven nonprofit executives, from start-up dreamers to scaling social entrepreneurs to global philanthropists. She is the author of Mission-Driven, a book for those moving from profit to purpose, and most recently the author Limitless: How to Ignore Everybody, Carve Your Own Path, and Live Your Best Life, which debuted at #2 on the Washington Post bestseller list, right behind Michelle Obama, and which Good Morning America’s Robin Roberts chose as one of her Favorite Books of 2019.

Through her own commitment to give back, Laura has helped build a local Montessori school, co-founded a women’s philanthropic initiative, advised a start-up national women’s PAC, grew a citizen-leadership development program, and completed five charity-inspired marathons—projects emblematic of her passions and values. She’s turned on by the audacity of The Big Idea and that larger-than-life goal you just can’t seem to shake. She’s an instigator, a motivator, and a provocateur, and she’s never met a revolution she didn’t like.

The pursuit of success as defined by everyone else won’t make your clients happy. Instead, you must help them to find ‘consonance’, made up of calling, connection, contribution and control.

In this session, you’ll discover how to help your clients live into consonance, so they can communicate the meaning behind their work. Explore how this will help clients live their best lives, build their businesses, and manifest their values.

The Great Resignation saw millions of workers quit their jobs in 2021 and 2022. Conventional wisdom says that leaders should pay their workers more. However, many workers left without having a new job lined up. So, what’s really behind it?

In this session, a 20-year executive research veteran presents findings from a 3-year study, in which more than 6000 workers revealed exactly what drove their dissatisfaction, and what they’re looking for from their working lives.

  1. Money isn’t the number one factor in determining employee satisfaction; inspiration, insight, and agency are.
  2. Leaders can help their workers to get re-engaged by helping them see their place in the bigger story.
  3. Bad leaders bleed out staff, but good leaders with no relationship with their workers are just as much at risk.
