September Leadership Forum

Our September Leadership Forum brought together leading public and private sector chief executives with UK innovation guru Charles Leadbeater to focus on leading for innovation – what can the public sector learn from new private sector thinking?

We found this a powerful opportunity for public and private sector heads to share insights and experiences around leading for innovation, and a number of potential collaborations have built as a result.

We are very grateful to our foundation partner, Gen-i, for hosting the forum.
