Tracks Venues

In this session...

Should you turn on the charm, run faster, control more, respond quicker and shout louder as digital complexity increases? Can you?
Perhaps it's time to disrupt the leadership models and skills that have worked well enough before to survive and even thrive in the digital age: how about more empathy, humility, trust and empowerment? Time for the anti-hero or the beta leader to rise up? This debate will leave you with fresh insights that may even disrupt your own leadership style, for the better. Go on, give it a go.

The digital world is full of opportunity, and intrigue. But also lots of complexity and cost. Something that is bleeding edge one minute, can be irrelevant the next. Competitive advantage is more transient. Hero leaders become villains over night.

To succeed in a digital age, do you need to disrupt the model of leadership applied to an analogue world?

How do you create a more agile, networked, inclusive and empowered organisation more able to innovate, and monetise exciting opportunities? And how do you flex your focus, and style, whether you're creating a startup, kick starting growth or restructuring a legacy business?

Do the skills and tricks you've learnt still hold true? Or do you have to reskill, reinvent and revolutionise who you are, and what you do?

Listen to, and then challenge, diverse points of view from leaders who bring entrepreneurial, creative, advisory and academic experience. And be ready for a fun, edgy and may be even disruptive session!
