The man billed as a world-leading speaker on disruption and innovation, is coming to Australia and New Zealand for the March 2016 Growth Summit.
A media release from the summit organisers says that “disruption is a game-changer for Australian and New Zealand businesses across all industries in 2016, it is not a passing trend [but] the new ‘normal’. The rapid advancement of technology and globalisation, is allowing new business models to be introduced at an ever-increasing rate and with rapidly declining costs”.
Delivering the world’s best business thought leaders to entrepreneurs, executives and leaders of growing businesses, the Growth Summit is now in its 9th year and will feature Salim Ismail, Geoff Smart, Frances Frei and Joseph Grenny. This line up of speakers will share their ideas and insight on disruption, leadership, strategic differentiation and influential change.

And yet, few leaders have the handful of techniques for getting others to change. What truly influential leaders understand is that influence has little to do with pep talks, bribes or system updates, but rather is the capacity to systematically and rapidly change a handful of key behaviours
