Patty Rowland Burke, innovation and venture catalyst for the Centre for Creative Leadership (CCL) and its Commercialisation and Innovation group, gave an introduction on women leadership in the business world.
CCL was a 50-year-old nonprofit organisation that provided training and courses for professionals in the leadership position. It had a globally managed network of coaches and faculty in the industry and teams of full-time dedicated researchers committed to creating results, she said.
Burke continued: “We continue to lead and innovate in cutting-edge solutions to deliver a pioneering experience in leadership research and education.
“Most of the companies that we have been working with are pioneers of diversity, equity and inclusion with leadership development.
“Like many organisations, we are undergoing digital transformation. We have taken many of our five-day immersive leadership programs and turned them into leadership development content, and turning them into digital programs.”
