Leadership Unusual

Leadership Unusual: are you harnessing the self-leadership shift yet?

A dynamic conversation-style keynote presentation between Nikki Bush, Human Potential and Parenting Expert and Bryan Hattingh, Leadership Expert and Merchant of Hope, that will examine and champion the shift to self-leadership that COVID-19 is ushering in. How does this impact on your talent bench and the relinquishment and acquisition of capabilities and responsibilities among leadership and staff?

Over the past few decades, we have become more and more dependent on external validation, acknowledgement, recognition, motivation, entertainment and so much more. As this dependency has grown so has employee disengagement and productivity. With the onset of the Coronavirus pandemic we have seen that employee engagement and productivity are both up, but what is driving them? What is the source of energy team members are using to push the metrics up? Is it healthy and, indeed, sustainable?

THE PRESENTATION WILL COVER:

Nikki Bush
Human Potential and Parenting Expert

Human Potential and Parenting Expert, Nikki Bush empowers individuals, families and teams in business and education to win at work, home and life. She has the knack of putting difficult, complex and sensitive topics on the table (ones we often prefer to avoid), and making them accessible, such as disruption, death, loss, team dynamics, personal leadership, parenting, sexuality education, tech and your kids and so much more.

Nikki has written four best-selling parenting books with major publishers, including her latest, Future-proof Your Child for the 2020s and Beyond (Penguin Random House), and she has fielded over 2 500 media interviews in the past 12 years. You may have seen or heard her on her weekly slots on Radio 702 and SABC3’s Expresso among many others.
Nikki always speaks with passion, packs a powerful sound bite, provides valuable insights and will leave you with practical solutions to help you win at work and life.

Nikki is currently writing a new book for Penguin Random House with the working title: Future-proof Yourself to Win @ Work and Life.

Nikki works closely with many of South Africa’s top listed companies helping leadership and employees to get to grips with disruption both personally and professionally. She is a firm believer that when disruption comes from outside, your best approach is to consciously disrupt yourself or your business from the inside.
