Stop Chasing Answers: Step Into the Fog

We’re trained to find answers. But what happens when they elude us?

Pete Behrens invites you to step into the Fog—where uncertainty, complexity, and change collide. Because the Fog doesn’t just hide the path ahead—it reveals the leader within. Not with answers, but with courage. Not with certainty, but with curiosity.


Through stories both humorous and humbling, Pete Behrens takes you on a journey into the Fog—the space where answers fade, tensions rise, and leadership is tested. From mentoring missteps to organizational “arrhythmias,” Pete shares how real growth begins not when we conquer uncertainty, but when we learn to navigate it.

You're guaranteed to walk away with a fresh perspective on leadership—one that sees uncertainty not as something to fix, but as the very place where growth takes shape.


About Pete Behrens

Pete Behrens didn't set out to become a leadership expert. His professional journey began as an engineer, solving technical problems, but life had other plans. Over three decades, Pete has evolved from individual contributor to technical leader to business executive and organizational coach, learning that the most complex challenges aren't technical; they're human.

As Founder and CEO of Agile Leadership Journey, Pete has dedicated his career to helping leaders navigate uncertainty with courage and authenticity. He believes that leadership isn't about having all the answers; it's about having the humility to ask better questions and the courage to step forward when the path isn't clear.

Pete’s debut book, “Into the Fog: Leadership Stories from the Edge of Uncertainty,” captures decades of leadership wisdom through compelling real-world stories. The book reveals how authentic leadership emerges not in moments of clarity, but in the uncertainty of everyday challenges–what Pete calls “the Fog.”

An influential speaker, Pete has shared his insights at various global conferences and hosts the Relearning Leadership™ podcast, where he engages with industry experts and leaders to explore the evolving landscape of leadership and organizational development.
