Disrupt Everything and Win: Take Control of Your Future

In today’s volatile marketplace, disruption is no longer an occasional challenge—it’s a constant reality. Market shifts, emerging technologies, such as AI, and organizational shake-ups happen without warning. Yet it’s great leadership that turns this type of uncertainty into clarity, making effective, high-stakes decisions under pressure.

But, according to The Global State of Strategy: Strategy Management Trends Report 2025 by Quantive, only 10% of business leaders say their organizations pivot quickly and effectively. FranklinCovey’s Disrupt Everything: Innovate for Impact course closes that gap.

“We’re honored to have worked closely with James and Patrick to create this course,” said Paul Walker, FranklinCovey CEO. “In every organization today, regardless of the industry, it isn’t disruption that’s the threat, rather it’s the resistance to it. With this course leaders will gain the clarity, confidence, and tools they need to innovate under pressure, move faster, and achieve their most important goals in today’s fast-changing world.”

James Patterson, co-author of Disrupt Everything and Win, said, “We’re excited to have partnered with FranklinCovey to create Disrupt Everything: Innovate for Impact. Disruption is hitting every industry faster than ever before, and it’s not slowing down. The truth is every organization, team and person needs to lean into that change and find ways to turn it into something positive.”
