'Implementing and Leading Change'

September 29 2010

Following on from the presentation by Malcolm Follos, 'Leading in Difficult Times - Bringing Your People With You!', and Richard Ferguson who will lead a discussion on 'Embedding Change - Developing a Strategy within the Top Management Team'. This final session discussed 'Implementing and Leading Change'. The session was led by Tim Vernon, Chairman of Sensei UKE.

Given the changeable environment in which public sector leaders operate, leading and implementing change is about successfully transforming their organisations so that they adapt to new economic realities while continuing to deliver a quality service. This leadership challenge was the subject of this final breakfast briefing.

Tim Vernon, is Chairman of Sensei UKE. He has over 30 years' experience in a major global blue-chip organisation performing a wide variety of roles in sales, marketing, procurement, HR and operations, prior to becoming Managing Director of two major businesses. Additionally he spent a period as Head of Global Transformation driving a transformational leadership programme throughout the world.

Throughout his working life to date, Tim has been fascinated by the critical role that effective and inspirational leadership can play in differentiating good organisations from outstanding ones, and has spent a number of years tutoring on leadership development programmes.
