It’s no secret that businesses and other organizations are feeling the impact of dramatically accelerated change and resulting disruptions. Leaders are facing unprecedented challenges in every aspect of the modern enterprise. These challenges have created a need for significantly different leadership approaches. As a result, the 150-year pre-eminence of the modern “Business Administrator” is giving way to a new story featuring a new kind of leader: “The Business Designer.”

In this TIGER Talk, Eric Lloyd, Director of Denison Edge (a multi-faceted new program, recently launched by Denison University), will review the most important sources and causes of this momentous shift in leadership thinking. And he will sketch out several of the novel skillsets and innovative approaches your organization will need to employ to deliver excellent results despite our world’s accelerating pace of disruption!
