We’re excited to share that our CEO, Krista Sheets, was recently featured on Candid Convos, the thought-leadership podcast by Lead Fac Solutions. In this wide-ranging conversation with host Ramesh Srinivasan, Krista dives into what she’s spent nearly three decades championing: helping organizations unlock their greatest competitive advantage—their people.
From growing up in a family business to becoming a globally recognized “trainer of trainers,” Krista shares how she developed her philosophy of Return on People™, and why investing in human potential isn’t a soft initiative—it’s a measurable driver of productivity, resilience, and long-term organizational success.
The conversation also gets practical: she describes how DISC, Motivators, EQ, and AQ assessments give leaders a judgment-free language and framework to truly understand their teams, reduce friction, and create environments where people can thrive. She explains why people—not tools or technology—remain the differentiator that sets top-performing organizations apart, especially as the pace of change accelerates and the demands on today’s workforce continue to grow.
For leaders, HR or L&D professionals, coaches, or anyone responsible for developing people, this episode provides actionable takeaways, including:
- How to think differently about people development and “power skills”
- Why Adaptability Intelligence is more critical than ever for navigating constant change with confidence instead of overwhelm
- What leaders often misunderstand about Adaptability
- How to measure Adaptability
- What it takes to build a culture that supports Adaptability and continuous reinvention
- What truly drives engagement, resilience, and performance
- How organizations can turn data into meaningful, lasting people strategies
It’s a conversation you won’t want to miss, as Krista brings clarity, candor, and decades of real-world experience to explain why every organization needs to be focused on Adaptability and people development right now.
