A full day conversation on agility and disruptive change

The world leading thinker on industry disruption – Mark Zawacki of 650Labs, San Francisco, USA and the team at breakthrough startup AXVECO are delighted to offer a unique one day learning experience for business executives.

We will share the thinking behind the success of Silicon Valley unicorns, discuss corporate agility and the contours of a new level of competition and explore how you can make real change happen in your organisation.  We pay particular attention to the challenge of disruption in a Dutch cultural environment.

In almost all sectors of industry and commerce, the theme of disruption has become both a board level concern and a startup dream.  New service offerings leveraging digital technologies are being developed or are already on offer that are changing the business landscape by capturing the customer relationship, transforming the economics of business or reconfiguring the value chain.  No business is immune from the threat of disruption – and this can come from unexpected sources.

We believe that the true secret to success lies more in the way we are organising and leading our companies than any particular technology that we leverage.  This requires a new mindset in the boardroom, at senior management levels and across an organisation in order to adapt to our rapidly changing world.

The day is highly interactive – being more of a continual dialogue than a standard presentation.  We will explore Silicon Valley disruption through a combination of plenary sessions and workshops to enable you to engage in dialogue with industry leaders, raise questions and gain the insight you need.
