Joint Keynote Session - Activist Leadership: Bold Strategy or Risky Business?
Joint Keynote Session - Activist Leadership: Bold Strategy or Risky Business? Mark Vitek (not verified)On-Demand
Keynote session fireside chat with Lucy Parker and Duncan Weston, followed by a panel discussion with two General Counsels.
From climate change to inequality, the major crises facing society have become critical issues for business, and the world expects companies to step up. This new reality requires a new type of leader: an activist leader. Most people feel powerless when they look at the problems facing the world - but if you're a leader in a big business, you're not powerless (whether you are a CLO, a deputy GC or a senior counsel). Thinking like an activist can have a transformative impact. What are the qualities required to embrace this type of leadership? How do you convince your CEO and Board that this approach is in the best interest of the company, especially when the benefits are not easily quantifiable? In this engaging session, THE author on the topic will draw on her extensive experience to provide a roadmap for successfully implementing activist leadership, while also addressing potential pitfalls and how to overcome them. Whether you're a C-suite executive or a member of the corporate legal team, this session will equip you with the knowledge and confidence to make informed decisions about the future of your organization.
