“GLOBAL TRENDS IN LEADERSHIP” Anders Kinding, Senior Consultant Leadership Training , the Positively Group. http://www.positively.se Organizations and companies have never before been so linked with cultures and markets globally. Never before has there been so well educated staff, often with double or even triple educations from universities. The access to information has never been easier and faster, and the speed of transformation has never been higher. What does this mean for successful leadership? We will look at some of the recent trends and studies in this field – from Jim Collins, David Rock (NeuroLeadership Institute), Simon Synek and David Burnham (Harvard, Boston). |

Dec 11, 2014 “SUSTAINABLE LEADERSHIP” Kai Wiklund, Partner and senior adviser, Provins fem. In my previous position as Business Director with IFL Executive Education, my interaction with researchers at the Stockholm School of Economic revealed some clear signals about the future conditions for companies: • “CSR-issues are important, not as hygiene factors, but as success factors.” • “Good ethics equals good economy. We have figures about that.” • ” You have to be able to pronounce the purpose with the business and be able to answer the question why the business exists.” • “The increasing complexity in business requires a leadership that can keep it at height.” Conditions like these set the focus on the ability among leaders to create legitimacy and meaning. A model will be presented from which you can reflect upon your own ability and your own context. We will also investigate how you can perceive the time factor and how it influences your leadership. |

Mar 19, 2015 “STAR WARS AND THE DIVERSITY BATTLE” Anna Stenberg, Founder and Executive Recruiter, WES Women Executive Search. http://www.womenexecutivesearch.se The hunt for the best competence is fierce in order to outperform competition and build the best high-performing teams on the market. There is a strong and obvious link between competence and profitability, and that the war to attract the best talents and leaders is getting more intense every day. The battle takes place in a world where a dominating part of the competence pool consists of female talents and leaders, who have not been on the radar screen of headhunters and corporate management structures – until now How do you attract these leaders and how do they want to be led? One fact accelerating the development is that diverse management teams are more profitable and successful, but what are the drivers to achieve diversity with a competence based approach? Are you ready for this change and what can you do about it? |
