Description

SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST

"It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change."

"In the long history of humankind (and animal kind, too) those who learned to collaborate and improvise most effectively have prevailed."

"In the struggle for survival, the fittest win out at the expense of their rivals because they succeed in adapting themselves best to their environment."

All quotes from Darwin...

As leaders in challenging times, how do we ensure survival of the work of the sector, how do we stay “fit for purpose” both as a leader and as organisations and how do we stay true to our vision but responsive to change.  This year’s speakers will help us consider these questions and also take into account:

  • Excellence under pressure – when the going gets tough.....
  • Safety in numbers – collaboration or competition
  • Self preservation – how can we best look after ourselves as leaders to ensure we are up to the job in hand

Speaker include:

  • Dame Mary Marsh, Clore Social  Leadership Programme
  • Sir Peter Housden, Permanent Secretary, Scottish Government
  • Norman Drummond, Drummond International
