The Open Leadership Symposium TAMPA 2020:

Implementing INVITATION-BASED CHANGE™ and INVITING LEADERSHIP™

The Open Leadership Symposium is a THREE DAY LEARNING EVENT happening February 4-5-6 which supports the Open Movement. The main event is February 5 with a selection of great Master Classes the day before and the day after.

About INVITATION-BASED CHANGE™ and INVITING LEADERSHIP™

Invitation-Based Change is a proven approach to enterprise-level change that uses an inviting style of leadership, with intent to engage as many people as possible in the change process. Inviting Leadership is an Open pattern that acknowledges that lasting change is best invited, and cannot really be imposed. Open patterns of leadership and organizing are always invitational in nature, and designed to engage as many employees as possible in the change process.

This Symposium offers 3 full days of learning-by-doing. You can elect to participate for 1, 2 or 3 days.

The primary goal of the event is learning. The Symposium represents an opportunity for you to:

• Gain access to immediately actionable guidance,
• Meet and deeply engage with the experts,
• Take away several proven and immediately practical Open tools,
• Find the others, and interact with other like-minded, pioneering, curious people, and
• Join an action-oriented community of practice and the wider Open movement

BUSINESS AGILITY

Business Agility is not really possible without implementing Open patterns and practices. Open patterns and practices are INVITATIONAL in nature. What brings us together is our intent to expand the understanding and use of Open Patterns and Practices, in service to greatly improving the results of agile and digital transformation efforts worldwide.

ABOUT THE OPEN LEADERSHIP SYMPOSIUM

The purpose and mission of the Open Leadership Symposium is to educate, enable, and support decision-makers who are responsible for enterprise-wide transformation programs. Our emphasis is on how to increase levels of employee engagement through internal motivation instead of imposition. True employee engagement is absolutely essential to the success of your change program.

Come to the OPEN LEADERSHIP SYMPOSIUM Tampa Feb 4-5-6.

Share, learn, connect and go back to your workplace, equipped with Open patterns and practices: those patterns and practices ENGAGE PEOPLE and embody Invitation-Based Change™ and Inviting Leadership™.
