Richard Nugent to speak at Shropshire Leadership Conference
Richard Nugent, founder and managing director of TwentyOne Leadership, will speak at the Leadership Conference in Shrewsbury.
The conference, organised by Shropshire Council’s Shropshire HR, will be held at Theatre Severn, Shrewsbury next Tuesday (15 November 2022).
Over the past 20 years Richard has worked with some of the biggest and best-known organisations in the world including LEGO, Merlin Entertainments, Warner Bros and Samsung.
His ALIGNED® methodology is revolutionising how companies operate, communicate and how leaders bring their people on the journey with them.
The approach brings a new perspective to leadership by smashing two lingering business myths that get in the way of organisations reaching their real potential.
- The first myth is that strategy eats culture for breakfast.
- The second myth is that great organisations start with ‘why?’
- By challenging these popular myths, ALIGNED® reveals how you can grab a competitive advantage by aligning strategy, culture and customer experience.
Richard will be joined by fellow speakers Sir Clive Woodward OBE, England’s 2003 Rugby World Cup-winning head coach, Director of Sport for Team GB at London 2012, and renowned business speaker and executive coach, and Debra Searle MBE, a professional adventurer and serial entrepreneur, who will also impart their knowledge and experience of leadership.
The conference will also offer those attending the opportunity to rub shoulders with Shropshire’s business elite and feature trade stands, hands-on workshops, and a Wellbeing Zone sponsored by Paycare, as a reminder to prioritise mental health in the workplace.
Over 100 delegates representing public and private sectors, local small and medium enterprises and international businesses have already signed up for the day, but there is still time to buy tickets.
Delegates will be able to arrive from 8.30am, for an official start at 9.15am. The day will draw to a close at 4.10pm, with an opportunity to network afterwards.
Gwilym Butler, Shropshire Council’s Cabinet member for finance and corporate resources, said:-
“We’re so pleased to have Richard as part of our line-up of incredible keynote speakers. He’s got a wealth of experience, working with many successful and well-known companies and I’m excited to hear what he has to share.
“If you haven’t already, please make sure that you book your tickets now to avoid disappointment. It’s an event not to be missed.”
