About the Session

Leadership Master Class 7 - Think like a leader - escape the expertise trap

Every decision is strategic, even the ones that don't feel like it. Drawing on neuroscience principles such as cognitive flexibility and perspective taking, this master class expands your ability to see the whole enterprise and align local decisions with ACU's sustainability, mission impact and vision.

Specifically, we'll cover:

  • Enterprise versus local optimisation - recognise how your individual decisions shape broader strategic outcomes.
  • How to get strategic alignment through coaching.
  • How you can reduce silos in your role
  • Deeping your systems thinking capabilities
  • Strengthening your communication skills to translate strategy into priorities and action.

Move beyond your field of expertise, widen your enterprise thinking and build your confidence with risk, integrate various perspectives and make decisions that optimize the whole, not just your part.
