Lord Michael Hastings

Join free · Online · Thursday 20 January · 8.30 to 9.30am GMT


Leadership flipped: Learn how to lead from behind and empower others


Lord Michael Hastings, Professor of Leadership at the Stephen R. Covey Leadership Centre at Huntsman Business School, USA has appreciated a deeply purposeful career across the public, private and non-profit sectors. He has dedicated his time to helping and empowering others, bringing about positive change in the UK and internationally.

At a time when we are recovering from a global pandemic and faced with a climate crisis, values are coming to the fore. There is a call for businesses to reinvent the way they do business and put purpose before profit. As business leaders, CAs need to be the drivers of such change.

With his refreshing and giving approach to leadership, Lord Michael Hastings will share with event attendees his key ingredients to successful leadership. Flipping traditional ideas on their head, he will suggest an empowering form of leadership that inspires and develops others and leads to positive and lasting change.
