Change is happening now! To be part of it we need to…
•Embrace the disruption•Polish our leadership lens•Apply an ecosystem mindset•Adapt quickly•Exchange with each other to engage with the new reality
Why now?
If we don’t approach change in a new way today andstart something different tomorrow to respond to our customer needs, then…we regress and are irrelevant.

Era of the Disruption Economy
Out of chaos Clarity emerges
Choose to see disruption as an agent of constructive change
The pain of same is greater than the pain of change
Adaptation seems to be, to a
substantial extent, a process of
reallocating your Attention
Daniel Kahneman
“
Times of crisis, ofDisruption or constructive
Change, are not onlyPredictable, but desirable.They mean growth. Taking a step, uttering a new word,
is what people fearMost.

The new learning space
20% a teaching space
80% a networked learning space
The networked environment
1. The stakeholder, not the company, is at the center of the network.
2. Multiple information sources reduce the relative impact of any one source.
3. Information flows in multiple directions.
4. Connections in thenetwork are unpredictable and fluid, re-‐forming assituations change.

Leadership
Leadership – traditional thinking
A leader’s job is to anticipate the future, to identify the trends that will affect their organization, and to guide and inspire people to move toward a better reality. Today more than ever, this job requires leaders to grasp the rapid rate of change in the business world and to build an organisation that’s capable of continually adapting.-‐ Nancy Duarte & Patti Sanchez, Duarte Inc. 17 Feb, 2016

Leadership – the reality
• Self leadership • Decentralised / distributed • Agile / Adaptable• Facilitator / enabler• Co-‐creator / ideator• Collaborative / Interactive• Organism mindset / Ecosystem mindset
New Leadership Mindset
OLDOrganisation = organism mindset• Network is inside the building• Siloed, non-‐questioning• Slow to adopt, no adaptation
NEWOrganisation = ecosystem mindset• Network is outside the building • Interactive, always asking “is our network working?”• Fast to adopt and adapt
Most likely to succeed

Collaboration
Collaboration
Collaboration is important not just because it's a better way to learn. The spirit of collaboration is penetrating every institution and all of our lives. So learning to collaborate is part of equipping yourself for effectiveness, problem solving, innovation and life-‐long learning in an ever-‐changing networked economy.
