Innovating Leadership: Co-Creating Our FutureS6-Ep11: Shifting from Trusting Institutions to Trusting PeopleGuest: Danièle Henkel, Knight of the Order of Merit & CEO of Daniele Henkel Enterprises
What’s love got to do with leadership? Turns out: quite a lot!
Danièle Henkel sees love in many ways: from passion for your work to genuine respect for the people around you. It’s another facet in building trust; in this case, though, the trust is in people rather than institutions. In a world where leaders often take the quick path – and its ethical shortcuts – to achieve success, Danièle’s take on trust and authenticity in the C-suite...2024-05-1339 min

A consultant and professor at McGill University, she’s found that art enables leaders to shift perspectives more readily, thus seeing solutions more effectively. That broadness of thought is more critical than ever: in the emerging business climate, what a leader knows is becoming far less relevant than the leader’s ability to shift perspectives and continually learn new s...2024-05-0641 min

The challenges keeping women from the C-suite and board room are systemic and complex – but the process really starts at the very beginning: how women aspire to and define leadership itself!

Less than half of the world’s nations are full-fledged democracies today. That’s down from just 20 years ago.
Part of the problem is a nation’s democratic death usually isn’t dramatic or sudden; it’s often a series of subtler, slower moves such as only appointing loyalists to cabinet posts and judgeships, or threatening the press if coverage isn’t towing the party line.
How does this happen in leadership? In this episode, three international thought leaders—Matt Qvortrup, Veronika Anghel, and Mike...2024-02-1847 min
