In facilitated peer discussions, participants meet and share their experiences, insights

Leadership Disrupted Thought Leader: Ted Bililies | Managing Director, AlixPartners In today’s business environment, CEOs are facing increasing challenges; the pace of technology is constantly accelerating, employees and customers are more socially conscious, industries are facing disruption from digital transformation, and increased scrutiny on businesses has been compounded by growing transparency with social media. A CEO’s success is determined not only by their leadership style, but more importantly their ability to adapt the right leadership style for the disruption they face in their industries.
Stocking The Talent Pipeline Thought Leadership: Enterprise Florida Building the right workforce is about more than hiring. It’s about attracting and developing talent — and that’s more than the job of just business.
