KEYNOTE SPEAKER

Edmonton, Alberta

Leadership, Transformation and Communication Expert

Kevin Gangel is CEO, Co-Founder of Unstoppable Conversations, which exists to cause leadership for a transformed world working for everyone & nothing left out. Kevin Gangel works with executive teams to have them discover the mental model they’re stuck inside, and then go after big, bold futures they didn’t think were possible.

KEVIN GANGEL BIOGRAPHY

Kevin Gangel is CEO and Founding Partner of Unstoppable, a consultation organization, whose noble cause is “to promote leadership for a transformed world”. Unstoppable is a ‘future-driven thinking’ consultancy, and its primary business is delivering Cultural Transformation.

Prior to Unstoppable, Kevin Gangel took a professional services practice from zero to fifteen million over ten years, six bosses, three rebrands, three ownership changes, and two economic downturns.  Gangel offers 15 years of corporate sales and leadership expertise, having managed a multi-million dollar business with a national top-10 professional services firm. He was instrumental in producing annual growth rates of 30-50 percent, resulting in seven ‘doubles’ in 10 years and was a two-time Alberta Venture finalist in both “Business Results and Best Workplace” categories.

Kevin Gangel works with executive teams to have them discover the mental model they’re stuck inside, and then go after big, bold futures they didn’t think were possible. It doesn’t matter the sector — corporations large and small, governments, and non-profits of all sizes — because what it takes to make transformational change is the kind of leaders who are willing to see what they’ve never seen before, say what they’ve never said before, and do what they’ve never done before.

As a social entrepreneur, Kevin Gangel co-delivered Canada’s first social entrepreneur boot camp — after stints as a Chief Environmental Officer (unpaid!), Board Governance instructor, and an impact angel investor. Kevin first flexed his social entrepreneur/intrapreneur muscle by creating the position of national Chief Environmental Officer. Currently, he is an active advisor for an award-winning, green-technology company in addition to his coaching, facilitation, and leadership development engagements.

Gangel also has a broad background in non-profit leadership development, having taught board governance across Alberta for several years as an instructor for the Alberta Board Development Program. Furthermore, as President of an IT professionals’ association, he also initiated and led the transformation of that board from an administrative to a governing model.

Specializing in organizational transformation, Kevin Gangel is a certified Mediator/Negotiator and expert in ontology and phenomenology. This extensive training allows him to win the occasional argument with his school-aged children.

Kevin Gangel Topic Presentations

context based leadership - there is nothing more you need to know

  • Keynote Presentation
  • Is your approach to leadership like this?  I should learn all the same skills that other great leaders have so that I can think like they think, do what they do, and have the same kinds of results they have.  If you have this approach, and most leaders do, then you’ve fallen into an invisible trap. The trap is that leadership is about knowing and doing.  It’s not. Leadership is about being.  Gandhi never actually said  “be the change you want to see in the world,” but he did say “we but mirror the world . . . If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a (human being) changes (their) own nature, so does the attitude of the world change toward (them.)”.

    The nature of leadership is not in the knowing. The nature of leadership is not in the doing. The nature, the being, of leadership is in the speaking. In this talk, you will discover what’s missing in the being of your leadership and what you can add to your speaking that creates a vivid future for you and those eager to follow.
