I am speaking at The Business of Events powered by PCMA Asia Pacific, at Maina Bay Sands, Singapore on Monday 15th April 2024, where the day's theme will be UNLEARN.
My really excited to be speaking at this event and to be at Marina Bay Sands - it's such a beautiful venue.
My topic is The Future of Middle Managers
A Gallup study revealed that middle managers account for 70% of team engagement variance. These individuals, often considered as influencers and shapers of organisational culture, play a pivotal role in the evolving workforce. Known as the “doers” and reliable pillars in stressful times, their significance is undeniable. However, there’s a need to question if leaders fully grasp the challenges middle managers face. This session aims to shed light on tackling these pain points through unlearning and offer strategies to optimise middle management performance, thereby enhancing overall organisational effectiveness.

I absolutely love the idea of reframing our thinking, no matter what industry you're in.
What do you need to UNLEARN in order to be, think, do better?
In the lead up to this amazing event, I was interviewed by PCMA, I'm currently featured on their front page (tad excited about that), you can check out the interview here: https://www.pcma.org/great-leadership-starts-with-self-leadership-how-middle-managers-fit-events-industry/
