Faculty presentation: The Achilles Heel of the Leader
Why do leaders fail and how do they fail to realise their dreams? If we are to understand these questions, we have to be willing to go beyond the directly observable and look at internal and social dynamics. In this session, we will explore the Achilles heel(s) of leaders and discuss how effective leaders cope with their potential drawbacks.

Faculty introduction: The Innovation Effect
The creative explosion that took place in Florence when the Medici family brought together creators from a wide range of disciplines such as sculptors, scientists, poets, philosophers, financiers, painters, and architects, to produce a powerful “Innovation Effect”. As these diverse individuals connected, new ideas were created at the intersection of their respective fields, spawning the Renaissance, one of the most creative eras in history. To introduce the Innovation Panel, we will first explore how innovative leaders around the world create similar “Innovation Effects” today. |
