A Critical Conversation with Fabian Dattner

September 16 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Why are organisations still overlooking one of their greatest leadership advantages?

If a market opportunity could strengthen performance, accelerate innovation, improve engagement and deliver measurable business outcomes, no organisation would ignore it.

Yet many organisations continue to underutilise one of their most powerful assets: women in leadership.

Join renowned leadership activist, founder of Dattner Group, Fabian Dattner, for an exclusive, invitation-only conversation exploring what it really takes to develop women leaders who can create influence, mobilise others, and drive meaningful organisational impact.

Drawing on decades of leadership development experience and insights from the Compass program, Fabian will challenge conventional approaches to leadership, performance and advancement, and share what organisations must do differently if they are serious about building leadership capability for the future.

This is not another conversation about representation.

It is a conversation about leadership effectiveness, organisational performance, and creating the conditions for women to lead at their full potential.

In this exclusive session, you will explore: 

  • Why capability alone is not enough – Many talented women have the capability to lead but lack the opportunity, confidence, organisational support, or influence skills needed to create impact at the next level. 
  • The difference between will and skill – Discover why leadership influence requires both the motivation to act and the skills to mobilise others, navigate complexity and drive change. 
  • Creating leadership that multiplies performance – Learn how influential leaders strengthen team dynamics, increase accountability, build commitment and create stronger connections between individual contribution and organisational strategy. 
  • What organisations can do now – Explore practical ways leaders, HR, People & Culture and DE&I professionals can accelerate the development of high-potential women and strengthen leadership pipelines.
