 Savvy leaders shape the culture of their company to drive innovation. They know that it’s culture--the values, norms, unconscious messages, and subtle behaviors of leaders and employees--that often limits performance. These invisible forces are responsible for the fact that 70% of all organizational change efforts fail. The trick? Design the interplay between the company’s explicit strategies with the ways people actually relate to one another and to the organization   

THE SUMMIT FORMAT
The summit’s format is structured to maximize learning and networking with a time efficient two- day interactive and diverse knowledge-sharing format to provide a collaborative delegate and speaker sharing opportunity. It aims to be both fun and informative – to provide the maximum networking so that presenters and attendees are given equal chance to contribute. There will be panel discussions, interviews, speed sessions, case studies and networking sessions throughout the program to enhance the learning and ability to make personal contacts throughout.
