Transformational Leadership in a Transformed World November 8, 2012

Featuring Deanna Oppenheimer, founder and CEO of CameoWorks, LLC, & former CEO of Barclays UK Retail and Business Bank

Where do you fit in today's fast-paced global economy? If you think the wider world has little to do with you or your business, think again-you or your company are likely influenced by global entities every day. And you or your ideas might be absorbed into an international company, or your organization could find itself competing with one. All of this rapid, widespread change translates to the ideal time for the traditionally female style of leadership.

According to Deanna Oppenheimer, global power is moving away from the parochial "command and control" form of leadership and toward diversity of thought, collaboration, positive influence, and fostering of trust. One reason that these traits are critical is that sophisticated data is coming into businesses at lightning speed. That information must be analyzed and acted on 'yesterday' by stakeholders who can achieve consensus quickly-and Deanna says it's happening when trust among customers and clients is at an all-time low.

Join us at the November 8 breakfast and learn more from Deanna about how women can best position themselves to develop, keep, and transfer power in today's unpredictable, diverse, and incredibly data-enabled business world. She'll share stories of her transformational business leadership experiences and discuss additional traits that best serve leaders-now and into the future
