Event
Traditionally, many leaders learn to lead by rising through their organisations and earning the authority to lead. But the world is changing and leaders must change with it. As organisations develop increasingly complex internal structures and external relationships - working across cultures, borders and boundaries - a leader’s ability to lead both across and outside their organisation becomes ever more important. This means that leaders need to be able to lead beyond their authority.
Speaker Julia Middleton is the Founder and Chief Executive of Common Purpose. She is a passionate campaigner for more - and more diverse - leaders who are active in civil society. Common Purpose now operates in every area of the UK. The organisation aims to improve the way society works by increasing the number of informed individuals who are actively involved in shaping the future of the area in which they live and work. By bringing leaders from diverse backgrounds together, Common Purpose creates new networks for current and future senior decision-makers.
Her first book Beyond Authority: Leadership in a Changing World was published in February 2007.
