THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(established under the Accountant Act, Laws of Kenya)
THE 2nd ANNUAL LEADERSHIP CONVENTION
Theme: The 21st Century Leadership: Convergence and Divergence
Venue: Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort & Spa, Mombasa
Date: 2nd -4th October 2019
OVERVIEW
Over the past century, wealth creation has shifted from capital intensive industries like steel and automobiles to information-intensive industries like information services, financial services, and logistics. The 21st century leadership needs to know when to diverge and when to converge since the most powerful sources of growth, employment and wealth creation are found in innovation-driven industries. One skill required today to succeed in this very competitive environment is the willingness and ability to embrace uncertainty.
Innovation, flexibility, responsiveness and creative redefinition of markets and opportunities are the new sources of competitive advantage. As the strategic focus shifts to innovation and the effective utilization of knowledge and human capital resources, organizations and their leaders must also change.
To surge ahead in the information age, firms must increasingly rely on the knowledge, skills, experience and judgment of all their people. The entire organization collectively, must develop and integrate new knowledge, nurture innovation, and learn to compete in new ways in an ever-changing competitive environment.
To help leaders navigate these changes seamlessly, this event has been organized to feature the following thematic areas:
- Data driven decision making for leaders
- Navigating Technology Landscape – A Call for Innovative Leadership
- Shifting the Leadership Landscape: Building Future Organization
- Using Power Effectively: A Toolkit for Leaders
- Creating a Risk Intelligent Organization
- Boards: When to Take Charge, When to Partner and When to Stay out of the Way
- Bridging Generational Gap – Best Practice
- Leadership Transition – Panel Session
