Adaptive Leadership in an AI World: Embracing Chaos
Sat, Jul 11, 6:00 AM**What if your greatest leadership advantage wasn't having all the answers...but knowing how to respond when no one does?** Today's leaders face constant disruption. Artificial intelligence is reshaping industries. Markets shift overnight. Teams evolve. Plans rarely unfold exactly as expected. The leaders who thrive aren't those with the perfect strategy—they're the ones who can adapt, collaborate and create possibilities in the moment. Inspired by the principles of improvisational theatre, this highly interactive experience is designed to strengthen one of the most essential leadership capabilities of our time: the ability to respond with confidence, creativity and resilience when the script disappears. Through a series of engaging warm-up activities, team challenges and experiential exercises, you'll develop the mindset and skills to embrace uncertainty rather than resist it. Along the way, you'll discover how trust, presence and collaboration unlock better decisions and stronger leadership under pressure. Together we'll explore how to respond when: * Plans fall apart and you need to pivot quickly. * The situation changes halfway through. * You're working with unfamiliar people. * Critical information is missing. * The brief is unclear—or completely wrong. * Outcomes don't match intentions. This isn't about acting. It's about learning to become more adaptable, resourceful and confident in situations where certainty simply isn't available. Whether you're a business leader, entrepreneur, consultant, coach or emerging leader, you'll gain practical experience in thinking on your feet while connecting with other professionals who are equally committed to growing their leadership capacity. You'll leave with: * Greater confidence navigating uncertainty. * Improved adaptability and creative problem-solving. * Stronger collaboration and communication skills. * A deeper appreciation that leadership isn't about controlling every outcome—it's about responding skilfully to whatever emerges. The future won't reward those who cling to the script. It will reward those who can create the next chapter together. 🎟️This is a ticketed event.

SydDT #128: When Does Design Become Strategic?
Wed, Jul 22, 8:00 AMMost designers want to be more strategic. But what does that actually mean? Is strategic design about working on bigger problems? Influencing executives? Creating visions and roadmaps? Driving transformation? Or are we confusing good design with strategic design? Join us for our July meetup where a panel of experienced strategic design leaders will explore one of the most debated questions in our profession: what makes design strategic? We’re lucky to have Dr Leanne Sobel, Jaimes Nel, Paul Merrell, and Lize Wordsworth sharing their insights with short lightning talks before we open up a panel discussion and audience conversation. We'll explore: * What strategic design is * What it isn’t – with common misconceptions and traps * How strategic design differs from other design disciplines * Where strategic design is heading * How designers can increase their strategic influence and impact Expect diverse perspectives, thoughtful discussions, and practical insights for designers at every stage of their career. Come join us for some fun conversations with interesting people in and around the design thinking community.
