Association for Coaching Ireland Conference, Dublin, 27 November 2009

Rewriting The Rules of Leadership and The World of Work

Association for Coaching Ireland Conference 2009
27 November 2009, Crowne Plaza Hotel, Santry, Dublin

As the Founder and now Chair of the Association For Coaching in Ireland, one of the projects I am gifting my time to at the moment is the planning of our first conference.

The conference team is hoping that the conference will radically challenge the way we think about the future world we live in. We will debate how these changes will influence the way that we conduct business. And we will offer ideas and insights on the opportunities this presents for us to thrive as business leaders and as coaches.

When Sir John Whitmore presented to us during our programme of events in 2007 he predicted the collapse of the financial markets and the world economy. He also told us “The Biggest Human Disease is Denial. The world will never be the same again”. How right he was!

This conference will offer business leaders, HR professionals and Coaches new insights on the need to rewrite the rules of society, business and the world of work.
