The world is changing rapidly. New technologies have a major impact on business models and organisations' right to exist. Industries become smarter and changes keep accelerating. How do we prepare our organisation for the world of tomorrow?
We need to experiment more and collaborate within ecosystems - create a perfect combination between ‘weirdos and randomness’. With reverse mentoring we link young talents to experienced managers, while 'servant leaders' inspire and facilitate. New skills are crucial; passion and curiosity lead to incredible ideas and major breakthroughs. To be attractive to customers and employees, you need a valuable and challenging purpose as a driver for good results that transcend profit maximisation.
Do you have the right mind-set to lead the change?
Richard’s keynote 'The Organisation of the future' will offer many ideas, case studies and examples on how your organisation can shift to the next gear.
