Many organisations are facing tough challenges and exciting opportunities simultaneously. Whilst innovation, creativity, inclusion, integration and entrepreneurship offer exciting possibilities on the one hand, the spectre of lack of trust, and the pursuit of greed and graft have reached Mephistophelian proportions. Collective wisdom is therefore sought to harness the positive, and to counteract the negative. This summit, with a line –up of great and insightful speakers, is intended to help you gain insights, and deepen your understanding over a wide range of all that is essential for organisational growth and sustainability.
Furthermore, our experience stretching over 16 years as a leadership consulting firm has confirmed the adage – “everything rises and falls on leadership”. Our work with over 3,700 leaders/executives/managers in public and private sector organisations has revealed that the Achilles heel of leaders, indeed their downfall can be attributed to the seven sins, which Barbara Kellerman has identified as:
1. Incompetence
2. Insularity
3. Intemperateness
4. Rigidity
5. Corruption
6. Callousness
7. Evil
