Visionary leaders see what others fail to see, finding potential and opportunity in a time of change or even company contraction. They see what’s not there—or what’s on the horizon.
Visionary leadership inspires others to work collaborative to achieve common ambitions and goals. A clear strategic vision illustrating the big picture enables individuals to know where they are going without worrying about how to get there. This allows all stakeholders to be more imaginative and creative, as well as experiment with innovative ideas.
We are delighted to extend a complimentary invitation to join us to hear first hand how Coraggio can expand and future proof your business followed by an upfront and personal keynote speaker session with the President of Boeing Australia, Dr Brendan Nelson AO at Coraggio Advisory Board Day on Friday, 23 July.
Opened by Coraggio’s CEO, Richard Skarzynski, who will discuss how being a part of a Coraggio peer to peer Advisory Board provides a sustainable solution to navigate your business effectively throughout 2021 and beyond.
Followed by Dr Brendan Nelson AO who will provide insights highlighting:
- The effectiveness of authentic leadership
- Learning leadership through reflection
- How to lead through story telling
- Leadership resilience.
