The market for Consumer Products and Services are becoming even more challenging when connected consumers start to get alternative vendors that look smarter, better and cheaper. In the ongoing transformation in the industry it is important to remember that Digitalization is not the destination - it´s a journey - with no end. In order to navigate in this more complex, fast moving world (the VUCA world) there is a need for a holistic approach, on what it takes to strengthen one's position in the market. Some critical questions for leaders in this sector are as follows: Do we have a growth mindset or fixed mindset in the leadership team? Do we have self-managed networks to support an agile transformation? Are we purpose driven or driven by something else ? Do we have the right tools and processes to support the above? Some successes and failures from the industry will be shared.

Poland)

Career Angels has been supporting experienced managers and executives in defining and selecting their next leadership role for the last seven years. While this is relatively easy from a practical point of view, we have come to realize that most executives fall into the trap of what we call "the curse of being too successful", in other words: while they are extremely busy transforming their organizations, they forget about themselves; consequently, they are not ready for their own "transformation", especially when the corporation decides to restructure. Who should be involved in awareness building? The corporations? HR? Other organizations? Is it only the responsibility of the executives themselves? How do you get through to somebody who feels that they are "in the flow" of success, probably feeling invincible? How can we help them avoid the biggest career mistakes that most later deeply regret --but when it's too late?

LEADING HIGH PERFORMANCE INDIVIDUALS AND TEAMS

Coaching and Advising Olympic Team Coaches, Athletes and Teams: Some Lessons Learned for Leaders and for Companies

*Rasmus Moller, Co-founder and Partner, Doubleyou Partners: Human Performance for Life, and *Jakob Hansen,  sport psychologiy consultant, working with Team Denmark that includes Olympic coaches, athletes, and teams (Copenhagen, Denmark)
Get your mind game right! Mental toughness in sport has traditionally, in Western cultures, been built on the “macho-anecdotal” assumption that the experience and subsequent expression of any “negative” emotion indicates a lack of mental toughness--that optimal performance comes only with high self-confidence, with the aim of convincing yourself that you are, and will be, successful. Having the right feelings was the defining factor. However, new evidence-based research on ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) psychology provides convincing evidence that present strategies and approaches do not work, and in many cases harm performance. In this interactive and experiential session we shall illustrate and discuss what mental toughness and performing under pressure really means, and what the future holds for developing high performing individuals and teams. Using the sports sector as an illustrative example, we hope this session will inspire all who work with high performing individuals and teams in both the private and public sectors either as coaches or as leaders.

I have funded a major initiative with Meridian High School, South London, through my social enterprise work. This is part of what is called in the UK as "Character Education'"- that complements Curriculum Education. The Character Education focuses more on applied psychology for student self development with regard to values, confidence, resilience, teamwork, courage, mutual support, innovation and other key issues. The British Government have made this a policy initiative, as they now realise that the next generation needs more than content and qualifications on paper. In addition, we are now working with other schools to support initiatives to develop the leaders of tomorrow. The aim is to extend the work to other countries and we have been invited to contribute in Bulgaria, Iceland, USA, Australia and New Zealand. An integral part of the initiatives is to introduce the teachers and students to the principles of action learning .  I see the session as an opportunity for participants to have a discussion on what they feel can be done in their own countries to facilitate the development of tomorrow's leaders - where we focus not on leadership in terms of a role or career, but in terms of contribution and achievement.

Agile culture acceleration  When executives look back at pivotal moments that stand out and have influenced their careers, they often include personal networks formed in leadership development programs they have been part of. In today’s fast moving world these type of networks also become a competitive advantage and a core competence for organizations that need to become more agile and innovative. Sometimes these personal networks fade out after a while and sometimes they stick. What is it that makes the difference? Here are some best-practices from 10 years of facilitating Top Management and HIPO programs… Gunnar George, Compassion Communication, and Associate, Global Executive Learning
My learning journey so far and what’s next Personal experiences and reflections before, during and after a Business Driven Action Learning program within Toyota. We were 18 leaders in the program that were challenged to work over a period of six months with some of the most strategic business challenges for the company. It took us to places like Stockholm, Nagoya and Berlin, but also on an inner journey with the purpose to evoke curiosity and engagement to become ”thirsty learners”.
