– Exclusive to Henley Partnership members –
Mark Palmer gives inertia a lateral nudge. He will challenge you to see what new products, services, people and processes are around the corner, and to pick up on the myriad new ideas that might be in front of your nose – but that you’re probably either not letting yourself see or you are allowing yourself and how your business works to get in your way. Be prepared to see the world as you’ve never seen it before and do something about it!
Learning outcomes
By the end of the event you will:
- have challenged your current view of your organisation and how it operates
- have developed some fresh ideas to resolve long-standing issues
- be inspired to make changes for the better!
“Mark fizzes with ideas – they just keep coming! He gives every problem a new dimension, which I have always found invaluable.”
Managing Director at Eurostart Digital
Who should attend
Anyone who would like to take a fresh, innovative view of their business.
