Future Leaders 2020 launches with a dedicated session on developing a leadership mindset. Why is leadership important? How does understanding yourself as a leader impact on your behaviour, and how others see you? How can empathy drive great relationships and the ability to influence without authority?

The second Future Leaders 2020 is devoted to leading teams, both internal and external project teams. To run a successful project you need to be not only a good architect but an even better team leader. We explore what it takes to create a positive team climate and help people succeed.

Find out how practice leaders set up to adapt to change, and how to lead people through a process of change.
