Are you more of a head-based leader, or heart-based leader? And what is the right balance to lead effectively through this challenging economic period?

As an award-winning and globally recognized leader, executive coach, company director, writer and speaker, Dr Kirstin Ferguson AM is one of Australia’s most prominent leadership experts.

Her career includes three decades of leadership experience, including over a decade of experience on a range of company boards and a previous appointment by the Australian Prime Minister as Acting Chair and Deputy Chair of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

Dr Ferguson's unique combination of skills and experience has driven her passion to inspire and educate all to lead from the head and the heart. She will challenge you to self-assess your own leadership, recognize your limitations, build deeper self-awareness, and create a culture of psychological safety in your teams and organization.

All attendees will receive a copy of Dr Ferguson's ground-breaking book, Head & Heart: The Art of Modern Leadership.

Combining studies from leading thinkers in the field with her own new research and more than three decades of personal experience, Dr Ferguson explains the eight key attributes of a head and heart leader, and provides the tools to measure your own approach. Along the way, she shares her conversations with modern leaders from a broad range of backgrounds whose stories will surprise you, challenge your thinking and inspire you to be the type of leader the world needs today.
