Change Wisdom Circle: Leadership Capacity Under Pressure
Advertisement
An in-person executive forum on leading transformation across functions, and organisational impact.
About this Event

Transformation isn’t slowing down.
But leadership capacity is being stretched.

When pressure rises, friction surfaces - between teams, priorities, and decisions.

Most organisations still default to treating change as a delivery problem.
The real tension sits in how leadership actually operates - in bandwidth, interdependencies, trust erosion, and execution strain.

This is not a workshop.
It’s not a panel.
And it’s not a networking mixer.

It’s a curated, in-person executive forum for candid conversation about leading transformation under sustained pressure.

Who This Is For

Executives, General Managers, Transformation Leads and senior leaders navigating sustained change and organisational complexity - regardless of industry.

This room is intentionally small to maintain depth and quality of discussion.

What You’ll Leave With

  • Clearer language to articulate and address friction slowing execution
  • Candid perspective from peers carrying similar complexity and leadership load
  • A more deliberate approach to leading across interdependencies under pressure
