Personal Invitation to an Exclusive Luncheon Debate on:

THE NEW CEO GENERATION

KEY LEARNINGS, INSIGHTS AND OPINIONS FROM A NEW GENERATION OF BUSINESS LEADERS

3 key business leaders, exceptionally brought together for an exclusive debate:

Monday 20 October 2014 from 12.00 to 14.15 Château Sainte-Anne/Sint-Anna Kasteel – 1160 Brussels

How do CEOs from a new generation define their role and mandate? How do they see the future socio-economical order? How do they work within new governance models? Which key lessons did they learn from their predecessors? How do they describe their leadership style? And how do they sustain growth and profitability in the economic reset?

Not so long ago, CEOs were on the top of the world. They led multi-million Euro businesses that drove massive changes. But a global recession, socio-political pressures and the failure for many of them to deliver on tangible business value have drastically tarnished their status. But today, a new generation of CEOs is taking the lead. More customer-oriented, more risk-management minded and more technology driven, they demonstrate significantly different leadership capabilities and minds to execute.

Now, is this enough for facing today’s key corporate challenges -cash flow, changing customer economics, employee productivity, and sustainable growth? How are they forging their leadership style through collaborative networks without hierarchies? How are they reshaping their organisations and business models? How do they engage the workforce in the new world of work? How to they keep social stability? Which external forces are really taking their attention today? Finally, what are the unique skills and qualities that define the new generation of corporate leaders?

You are cordially invited you to join this exclusive luncheon debate for a face-to-face discussion straight with 3 exceptional leaders who will confront their experiences and views on the new CEO generation. Afterwards, you will be invited to pursue the discussion during lunch and confront your own views, ideas and best practices with your peers.

Attendance is strictly controlled and seating carefully organised to ensure an ideal mix of backgrounds, positions and industries, with the purpose of learning from one another, share significant ideas and network in a leader-to-leader way.
