High Performing Human Leadership for AI
Most of what is currently said about Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a general overview which doesn’t give real clarity on how, day-to-day, leaders can optimise their success via effective use of AI combined with the power of inspirational Human Leadership.

Most of what is currently said about Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a general overview which doesn’t give real clarity on how, day-to-day, leaders can optimise their success via effective use of AI combined with the power of inspirational Human Leadership.

AI can make leaders more effective through data analysis, decision making and other areas but also key to delivering success is face to face human interactions in real time which AI is unlikely to replace. A recent study on AI by Adecco found 61% of employees thought AI was just a tool and the Human touch would still be most influential at work.

This keynote gives leaders clarity on where AI will help them and where they need to Accelerate their Human Leadership capability to become High Performance Human Leaders. This focuses specific actions which are critical for success : slick task delivery, getting the best from people and focusing that best onto what the organisation needs to achieve. These will enable them to be effective not just now but Future Fit for the rest of their careers.
By the end everyone will have an action plan on how, day to day, they can be High Performance Human Leaders integrating with AI on a day-to-day basis to Accelerate Success.
Entrepreneurial Leadership

The last few years COVID, Great resignation and economic instability have combined to create a perfect storm of uncertainty. Leaders and organisations who view this as an opportunity will flourish. It’s about leaders being able to scan the environment and identify opportunities, enable their people to do the same, then to implement so their organisations are more agile and successful.

Chris has worked with organisations at key uncertain points in their growth and is a leading expert in this field, eg his work at Global Head of Leadership and Talent at UBS on the first implementation of “entrepreneurial leadership” within a corporate environment, now part of the Harvard Case study.
Transformational Leadership
The one certainty is change. Success is about being ahead of the change curve by assessing the change needed, adapting to make it and accelerating ahead of the competition. Every leader must recognise the need for change, even in their own team, present an inspiring vision for change and get...

The one certainty is change. Success is about being ahead of the change curve by assessing the change needed, adapting to make it and accelerating ahead of the competition. Every leader must recognise the need for change, even in their own team, present an inspiring vision for change and get everyone behind making the change reality.

Chris expertise in this area is proven through many roles from Global Head of Leadership and Talent at UBS, now Harvard case study on creating a new global bank, to leading culture change on the restructuring of the London Underground and also as Honorary Visiting Professor of Transformational Leadership.

Success in this based on using a set of simple principles and actions which leaders at all levels can implement to create a powerful talent generating system within a short time – simply a culture of growth and success. This enables more people to grow more quickly which then creates more high performers ready to become future talent.
