Innovation Leadership

About Futureproof Leadership

Communication, curiosity and a drive to discover new possibilities and opportunities (including AI) are at the heart of great leadership. Join Nigel Barlow to discover how you and your team can write your own script for the future you envision.

You’ll learn how to use your curiosity to identify new possibilities and opportunities. Great minds question what most of us accept as received wisdom, continually thinking of better and different ways of approaching topics.  They have peripheral vision – seeing beyond the obvious, exploring other diverse minds and being open to unconventional, disruptive thinking.

Leaders must also be adaptable, and this has never been more relevant than in an era where AI threatens to take over human initiative and creativity. How can we develop our own thinking at a pace that parallels the tsunami of technological tools that is both upending and benefitting our lives? Nigel will outline practical ways to develop and practice your own curiosity about the future.
