Anyone who has the responsibility to lead a team, knows that a leader’s performance is measured by a simple and direct parameter: results.

To have technical skills or knowledge, experience or many years doing a job, it’s totally different to have the capacity to exert effective leadership. To accomplish this, there is a need to develop specific skills and attitudes that can assure an adequate fulfillment of goals and the establishment of a productive working environment.

This program will be hosted in English.

Join us for a fireside chat with Aline Drucker, General Counsel with Invicta Watch Group and past president of ACC's South Florida chapter, as she discusses her legal leadership of Invicta's diverse business lines and international operations. Learn how her extensive experience with MM Global Strategies LLC and Deutsche Bank helped develop the expertise she now uses to navigate complex legal and regulatory landscapes, and guide Invicta's legal strategy.

 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.

In this high-energy interactive Keynote, Dr T will expose the 3 biggest ‘Brain Villains’ that attack the wellbeing, innovation and human performance in organisations and how we can overcome this in the workplace. Learn how to navigate burnout, increase mental clarity, boost human efficiency and enhance results!
