+ Vectors of Change (click to expand)
We're living in a world of unprecedented change, coming at us from all fronts.
How can directors and senior leaders drive strategy against the backdrop of exponential technologies, cyber-risk, increased inequality, technological unemployment, algorithmic bias and the undermining of trust? How are these vectors of change converging with others, like economic change, political change, social change and climate change?
With humanity doing both better and worse than ever, it will take smart, ethical leadership, integrity and first principles thinking to thrive in an uncertain future and ensure the organisations we lead don't get left behind.

- How executives and directors need to shift their thinking in order to stay ahead.
