Monday Executive Institute Keynote Luncheon: Can I Have Your Attention? Leading in the Age of Distraction

In today's hyper connected workplace, distraction has become more than a productivity issue—it's a strategic liability that prevents teams from focusing on what matters most. Learn how to reclaim attention as a leadership priority with bestselling author Curt Steinhorst, who combines personal experience overcoming ADHD with a decade researching the economics of attention in modern organizations. You'll discover practical approaches to help your team focus without micromanaging, build rhythms that protect attention across roles, and use clarity as a force multiplier for execution.
