SESSION INFORMATION
The 5C Model for leadership: confidence, challenges, creativity, coaching and culture
Leadership development is not limited to those who hold official leadership positions. Contemporary theories, such as servant leadership or the belief that ‘everyone is a leader’’, are relevant to this production. This keynote presentation is constructed as an historical journey comprising three parts. In part 1 we examine the evolution of 7 primary leadership theories (spanning thousands of years) to arrive at a single common trait and skill to harness. The mid section, part 2, inspired by HG Wells ‘Time Machine’, explores 3 case studies: including MC’s personal journey developing leaders for over 25 years. Part 3 of the keynote addresses the challenges of modern day leadership in a hyper connected digital age; dealing with the elephant in the room we all have responsibility to be mindful of.
