OVERVIEW
An exclusive, invitation-only event for Malaysia’s preeminent HR and business leaders
This July 2017, the the Iclif Leadership and Governance Centre (Iclif) and Vertical Distinct will host an intimate gathering of senior HR and business leaders from Malaysia’s top organisations.
Bringing together pre-eminent HR and business leaders, the discussion will centre on the impact points created by the shift of leadership and what HR can and should review and do in order to remain relevant and possibly, be one step ahead.
In the era of disruption, this involves looking at what all of this means to the talent management, HR and leadership teams. We look at the different implications that may result from adjusting HR policies, launching new strategies as well as introducing creative ways of working together.
We would like to invite you, and combine the expertise of all the leaders like you in the room, to brainstorm and uncover insights and new solutions. These are some of the issues that will be discussed in the next HR Breakfast Roundtable, Redefining Leadership in the Open Source Era, this July.
Featuring a keynote by Rajeev Peshawaria, Iclif Chief Executive, this Roundtable will provide an opportunity to preview Iclif’s latest proprietary research of leadership shifts in the 21st century, in conjunction with the launch of Rajeev’s third book, The Naked Autocrat (McGraw Hill October 2017). Conducted by 15,000 leaders across 27 countries including Malaysia, the research will suggest that in order for organisations to achieve breakthrough success, a shift in leadership style is critical. Join us and be the first few to find out what has shifted and what should be adopted.
“When they faced stiff resistance along the way, they dug deep within themselves and stayed the course. They never gave up. The stronger the resistance got, the firmer their resolve. This firm resolve to create a better future is leadership.” – Rajeev Peshawaria
