Events

You’re invited to a special in-person event hosted by
Admired Leadership at The Pittsburgh Foundation. Join Diana Futrovsky, Managing Director, and John Cook, Executive Coach and Partner at CRA | Admired Leadership, for an engaging session that explores how the best leaders build teams that thrive under pressure.

The Challenge
Even resilient leaders can have fragile teams. Your composure under pressure doesn’t automatically create team resilience. Why? Because individual fortitude is finite, and modeling alone doesn’t build collective capacity.

The Opportunity
Resilient teams absorb shocks without depending on the leader to hold everything together. When one person struggles, others step up. When adversity hits, the team processes it together rather than looking to you for all the answers. Your job isn’t to be unbreakable—it’s to build a team that maintains momentum even when you’re not at your best.

The Business Case
When team members feel more responsible to each other than to you, they develop a different level of resilience. They support each other because the relationship matters, not because they were told to. Teams that process adversity together, with leaders who frame challenges effectively and celebrate how the team responds, build the collective capacity to maintain performance even when individuals struggle.

These in-person events bring together senior leaders across every demographic and industry to think differently about the practicality and implementation of leadership development. Although each event has a specific topic of focus, every gathering includes discussion around the behaviors of the best leaders in the world.
