The Talk
How can we lead change in an uncertain and complex world? This will be the central question around which we will be holding the lunch lecture. In a world of varying challenges, be it of geopolitical, natural, or economic nature, it can be difficult and overwhelming to navigate. Participatory Leadership is a style of leadership that can create an inclusive environment, thereby harvesting the power of conversations that matter. Often, the sum of the individuals can be bigger than their respective parts. These approaches have been used effectively in a multitude of contexts worldwide to harness collective wisdom, encourage compassionate leadership, and create better social and environmental outcomes.The Speaker
