 4. Centre for Excellence in Leading Adaptive Organisations

The world is changing at an unprecedented rate – and companies are under
tremendous pressure to maintain performance in volatile environments.

Businesses have to be able to adapt quickly – without losing sight of their
vision and strategy. And to do this, they have to adopt proactive, holistic
approaches that cut across leadership, human resources, strategy and
organisational processes and structures.

The Centre for Excellence in Leading Adaptive Organisations gives you the
insights you need to develop a culture that can embrace change – and thrive.


JOIN A POWERFUL COMMUNITY

Join the Centre for Excellence in Leading Adaptive Organisations, and become
part of an interactive network that offers both individual development and
learning at organisational level.

It’s a stimulating, confidential environment where members and partners share
experiences and approaches – and where they can access and influence
ground-breaking research. Become part of this powerful community of
change-makers to take part in events, network and have direct access to our
expert faculty.


RESEARCH TO POWER YOUR COMPANY

Our research gives your organisation the inspiration to become adaptable, create
a proactive culture and thrive.

As a member, you directly influence our agenda and annual research theme – so
you can be sure our findings will be relevant to your organisation. You’ll get a
constant feed of customised insights, tools, white papers, models and more.

Our research topics include developing leadership frameworks, creating
self-steering and managing organisations, dynamics of senior management,
resilience, purpose and sustainability, learning climates, diversity and
inclusion, flexibility and agility.


NETWORK, EXPLORE, DEEPEN YOUR THINKING

Every year we investigate a central theme that’s based on our members’ input.
Then we explore the topics around it in interactive, full-day workshops,
webinars, inspirational sessions for your organisation – as well as a
residential seminar and a summer talk about your key strategic challenges.

The centre is a place to network, share ideas – and be inspired by senior
leaders from other organisations and our expert faculty.


RECENT RESEARCH





WHITEPAPER: FLEXING YOUR WORKFORCE



The trend towards flexible working is not new, but the pandemic has definitely
accelerated it. Investing in workforce flexibility is no longer a luxury, but a
key strategic priority. As well as improving employee engagement, flexibility
can improve productivity and profitability. In addition, organisations that
offer greater flexibility can tap into broader pools of talent, which boosts
diversity and inclusion. This white paper takes a closer look at four ways
organisations can flex their workforce.

WHITE PAPER: BUSINESS ECOSYSTEMS – WHAT DO THEY MEAN FOR YOUR COMPANY? AND HOW
DO THEY IMPACT YOUR ROLE AS A LEADER?



Evolving customer expectations, new regulations, technology and globalisation
are all trends that are forcing organisations to rethink strategic
collaborations. Stakeholders now increasingly join forces in more organic
ecosystems – offering their services in collaboration, as well as in
competition. How could your organisation benefit from ecosystem thinking? And
how should you structure these collaborations?

WHITE PAPER: RESPONSIBLE LEADERSHIP – REIMAGINING LEADERSHIP IN A WORLD FULL OF
GRAND CHALLENGES



Sustainability is no longer a nice-to-have. Instead, both customers and
employees demand that it’s baked into the way every company does business. This
white paper investigates what a transformation to sustainability involves – and
explores how responsible leaders balance tensions between profitability and
sustainability.

360° ALP TOOL

The Appreciative Leadership Profiler is a unique 360° feedback instrument that
gives managers (and non-managers) comprehensive feedback on their competencies.
It assesses performance at four levels: personal leadership, task-oriented
leadership, relational leadership and change-oriented leadership. In an
extensive debriefing workshop, participants translate learnings into actions.


LEADERSHIP SIMULATION TOOL

Discover your leadership style – and get coaching on it – in this interactive
game. You take on a role in a fictional triathlon clothing company. Our coaches
observe you in action, carrying out a number of assignments.
