Ascend Midwest - Fireside Chat

Join Ascend Midwest on Zoom for How to Lead Courageously, Navigate Chaos, and Deliver Results..

In an era of economic volatility, rapid technological disruption, and perpetual change, rigid leadership strategies no longer work. Join us for an exclusive, virtual, one-hour fireside chat featuring global executive June Yee Felix—former CEO of IG Group Plc and veteran C-Suite leader across IBM, Citi, and Chase.

Drawing from her experience, June will share how martial arts legend Bruce Lee’s core philosophy—adapt what is useful, reject what is useless, and add what is specifically your own—became her ultimate strategic compass through high-stakes global crises. June will distill three decades of crisis leadership, board advisory work, and transformation into actionable moves designed for today's complex business landscape.


Key Takeaways

  • The Bruce Lee Mindset in Business: How to cultivate fluid, adaptable leadership rather than relying on outdated, rigid corporate playbooks.

  • Leading Through Chaos: Real-world lessons from leading organizations through market turbulence, major acquisitions, and global shifts.

  • The 8 Strategic Moves: Practical frameworks to help you make high-conviction decisions, align cross-functional stakeholders, pick the right battles, and deliver results when certainty is out of reach.
