2022 Disrupting the Practice of Leadership

With the dramatic changes brought on by the events in 2020 and 2021, we can no longer rely on the familiar practices of leadership. This year, we will explore, share, and co-create how we can, and must, transform our own leadership to meet the new challenges in front of us.

This year’s Summit will include:

• A networking dinner on June 6
• Insights into stakeholder capitalism and Q&A session with Alan Murray
• Foresight and the future of work and Q&A session with Natalie Nixon, Ph.D.
• A deep-dive discussion on leadership and Q&A session with Michael Platt, Ph.D.

The Insigniam Executive Summit is for Insigniam clients, offering a rich atmosphere to hear fresh new ideas, elevate their leadership, network, think newly, and share in celebrating breakthrough results.

The intent of the 2022 Insigniam Executive Summit is to give the clients of Insigniam and their colleagues a forum in which to share and discuss their experiences, learn more about themselves and why they operate the way they do, and how to make a meaningful impact in elevating their organization’s results.

The discussions will be run so attendees can incorporate insights gleaned from actual experiences among high performers across a variety of disciplines and industries, and to create actionable elements for generating breakthrough results.
