Overview

This training seminar will examine the position and profile of modern leadership in a digitally enabled and data-driven world.

Leadership is key to any successful change. Engaging with opportunity, leaning into risk, and most importantly, bringing people on the journey of change willingly and safely. Yet, all too often leadership falls short of our focus when it comes to setting ourselves up for successful change and transformation, leading to 84% failure rates in some digital transformation efforts.

It is vital that governments succeed in their digital transformation efforts. Adopting a new profile for leadership is one of the most important ways to achieve this.

This seminar will look into the macro landscape of business and government and why the need for a new leadership mental model is required. We will then unpack exactly what that mental model looks like and the journey we can all take towards evidencing these mindsets in our own leadership practice to accelerate change and transformation all around us.

Topics that will be examined include:

  • The macro case for a new kind of leadership mindsets
  • Understanding the power of mindset shift to drive behaviour change
  • A framework focused on leadership mindset to accelerate digital transformation
  • An approach for changing our own mindset and that of others
  • Understanding how to connect leadership more closely to change and innovation
  • Understanding how to bring innovation into the micro-moments of business-as-usual

Who is it designed for?

This seminar is designed for civil service leaders: including ministers, directors, senior managers and senior change and transformation practitioners. It will be of relevance and great interest for any senior member of staff as the seminar explores the relationship between leadership and successful digital transformation

How will you benefit from attending?

Adopting the right mental model for leadership in a digital age is no longer a choice, but an imperative. This seminar provides a deep understanding of what this looks like. It also analyses how to assess and develop this leadership mindset through the lens of a framework used internationally across both the private and public sectors.
