In this first episode of Boardroom Transformation Talks, we take a hard look at why traditional leadership models—rooted in 20th-century thinking—are breaking down in today’s fast-paced, AI-driven business environment. From the outdated principles of Taylorism to the rise of stakeholder capitalism and decentralized decision-making, this deep dive challenges executive leaders to rethink how they lead in the age of digital transformation.
We explore real-world case studies like Haier’s self-managed microenterprises and Buurtzorg’s agile healthcare model, and examine how companies like Microsoft, Netflix, IKEA, and Patagonia have embraced purpose-driven strategy, sustainability, and organizational agility. Learn why legacy management structures stifle innovation, block effective AI adoption, and pose existential risks to business resilience.
This episode delivers actionable insights for board members, CEOs, CHROs, and transformation leaders seeking to:
Build future-ready organizations
Foster employee empowerment and autonomy
Attract and retain next-gen digital talent
Align profitability with purpose and long-term sustainability
Move from static hierarchies to agile management practices
As we navigate massive shifts in technology and business expectations, one thing becomes clear: the rules of leadership are being rewritten.
