Keynote

Fit for Future: Creating adaptable, innovative, and inspiring organizations

In today’s digital world, there are those who disrupt – and those who will be disrupted.

You cannot stand out from the crowd if you are content with doing things a little better than everybody else or a little differently from how you did them in the past. The only way to make a difference is to stand for something special. Originality has become the litmus test of strategy.

Innovation

Smart innovators look at industries outside of their own as a way to leapfrog their rivals. Looking for ideas in unfamiliar fields is not just about relocating ideas but also about reimagining what is possible.

Creativity

The essence of creativity is figuring out how to use what you already know in order to go beyond what you already think.

Leadership

The notion of the visionary leader as the captain of the ship is bankrupt. Value is created at the intersection of the organization and its customers. The managers job is to enable innovation at that interface, which is completely different from the command and control model.
