Held from ICC Belfast’s new hybrid studio on June 25, World-Class Leadership Live is a new, virtual leadership event created to help Northern Ireland’s business leaders rise to the challenge of emerging and rebuilding from the impact of Covid-19
It will host a panel of exemplars from across the globe, including Margot Slattery, Global Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer, Sodexo Group, Kieran Kennedy, Founder and Managing Director, O’Neill’s Sportswear and Laith Dajani, Executive Director, William J. Clinton Leadership Institute.
Making use of new technology at ICC Belfast host, BBC Northern Ireland’s Mark Simpson, will be joined by a number of panelists on the ICC stage, while others will broadcast their contributions live from New York, Lebanon and Dublin.
Speaking ahead of the event, Ann McGregor, Chief Executive, NI Chamber said: “As companies across Northern Ireland emerge from the ‘lock-down’ and begin the process of rebuilding, even the most experienced leaders will be tested. We want to make sure all business leaders are giving direction and taking good decisions from the best position possible. This means building their confidence, instilling agile principals and giving them access to the successful experiences of others.
“Leadership Live is a truly world-class event and we are pleased to bring it to market at a time when we know companies need our support. The panel of speakers is made up of globally renowned experts – leaders in their own right who will share both inspiration and practical lessons. Whatever your business size or sector, we encourage you to take a couple of hours out to join online.”
World-class Leadership Live is supported by headline sponsor Electric Ireland and supporting sponsors Queen’s University, Belfast and ICC Belfast. The event takes place on Thursday June 25 from 1.30pm- 3.30pm. Places at the event are free and business leaders from across every sector in Northern Ireland are invited to attend.
