Event description

Any major transformation strategy in an organization is a human-led venture. Leading people into the unknown is about creating faith, a faith to follow. Cultures of belonging, cultures of performance, and cultures of innovation give you an edge on that faith. 
 
To that end, organizations need to inspire, influence, engage and activate teams of people towards a collective ambition to succeed. How change makers do that when you’re charged with leading that call for collective ambition (spoiler alert: there is a process!) is the focus of this session. The better you are able to inspire/influence/engage/activate your organization, the better your success.
