Dr. Frederik G. Pferdt

As the world returns to a new future, the pace of change continues to accelerate, demanding not just a new way of thinking from each of us — but a new way of being. Innovation is not a choice anymore; it’s a necessity — for everyone.

We are all facing ambiguous problems as well as extraordinary opportunities for positive change, so it’s vital to have the ability to use our human superpower: creativity to invent what’s next. But how can we start innovating today and future-proof ourselves to navigate tomorrow’s world?

Sharing insights from one of the world’s most innovative companies, Google’s Chief Innovation Evangelist and Stanford University Adjunct Professor Frederik Pferdt will immerse you in powerful experiences that will help you explore your dimensions of an innovation mindset.

The interactive keynote will focus on how everyone can start reprogramming their mindset to start shaping a better tomorrow, today.

For centuries, humans have innately understood that small, tangible acts done routinely can carry value and meaning. These “rituals” can help build the muscle memory of an organization’s culture. In this interactive, hands-on / minds-on Masterclass, leaders identify values to craft some powerful rituals and bring them to life in new ways, building a future-ready culture – one step at a time, preparing themselves and the organization for a new tomorrow. Expand your knowledge now with an award-winning Masterclass about the innovative power of rituals which can be used in organizations to engender a sense of community, create togetherness in times of distance and build cohesion and ultimately help take an organization from good to great. You’ll walk away with guidance on how to decipher and use rituals to make leaders, employees and organizations more prepared for a different tomorrow plus specific rituals you can experiment with starting immediately.

You’ll learn:

– how to identify core values as a leader and in your organizational system

– how to use new rituals to help activate those values

– how to lead effectively to navigate the future
