LEADS: Reimagine the World

Leadership is as much about innovation, as much as it remains to be an ‘art’, in an environment where change is the only constant. An environment wherein convergence between seemingly divergent philosophies of self-reliance and globalization is essential. An environment wherein independence and interdependence will go hand in hand when we look at future global partnerships. Global leaders continue to strive for excellence while making their business resilient and adaptable. Leadership vision focuses on sustainability and gender diversity as the fundamental principle for future partnerships. However, with 2020 having forced the world to ‘reimagine the future’, SMAC (Social, Mobility, Analytics and Cloud) takes centerstage, and will form the foundation of future business touching lives of millions of citizens.

The 2nd edition of LEADS, a FICCI’s global thought leadership initiative wherein global leaders from Asia, Europe, Africa, CIS, Americas & the Pacific will share their vision on “Future of Partnerships”. Industry leaders and policy makers from world over will be deliberating on how the tenets of Leadership, economic Excellence, and Adaptability of business models, built on pillars of Diversity and Sustainability can help us ‘Reimagine the Future’.
