In a time when change is constant and uncertainty is spiking, the new Leading Through Uncertainty course empowers leaders to recognize and harness the inherent biological responses that influence behavior, decision-making, and leadership effectiveness. Drawing on Kotter’s renowned Survive and Thrive framework, the course invites participants to explore how evolution has shaped a dual-channel system that often impedes progress in high-stakes situations.

What Makes This Course Relevant Today

Rather than simply offering tools to cope, Kotter’s Leading Through Uncertainty training course helps leaders reframe uncertainty as a strategic advantage. Participants will:

• Evaluate personal Survive and Thrive responses in real-world leadership moments.
• Learn to guide teams through change using proven, actionable frameworks.
• Minimize triggers that induce reactive “Survive” behaviors.
• Activate “Thrive” responses that spark innovation, adaptability, and resilience.

Built around immersive case studies and practical exercises, this half-day course offers both self-paced learning and powerful, ready-to-use leadership tactics. By applying five core strategies to mitigate Survive and activate Thrive, learners will strengthen their leadership presence, take decisive action in the face of uncertainty, and ignite forward momentum across their teams.

The Learning Through Uncertainty course consists of two modules.

• Module 1: Leading Yourself Through Uncertainty

Understand and reshape your own responses to disruption. Build energy, optimism, and the ability to model Thrive behaviors.

• Module 2: Leading Your Team and Organization Through Uncertainty

Practice language and techniques to lead others through challenge and ambiguity, fostering a culture that embraces change.

“Uncertainty is spiking in today’s world, and it can either paralyze teams or propel them forward,” says Rachel Rosenfeldt, Executive Director and Head of Kotter Training. “This course equips leaders with the clarity, mindset, and practical tools to turn disruption into momentum—and lead with confidence, even when the path ahead isn’t clear.”
