Description

How do we build the courage to challenge tradition and embrace new ways of thinking?


This episode explores why traditional 20th-century models of leadership are no longer fit for today’s realities. By examining the rise of adaptive, collaborative, and ethical approaches, we’ll consider how leadership development must evolve to serve a complex, interconnected world. Listeners will gain insight into what “leadership for the greater good” means in practice—and the risks, resistance, and rewards of reshaping leadership development for a future defined by change.


Key Themes & Talking Points:



  • Why outdated “hero leadership” models no longer serve today’s challenges.

  • The rise of adaptive, ethical, and collective leadership approaches.

  • The influence of global trends on how we develop leaders.

  • Guardrails to ensure leadership development creates positive, future-focused impact.


With Toby P. Newstead from University of Tasmania Professor Ron Riggio from Claremont McKenna College + Dr Polly McGee from DisCo | Disruptive Consulting
