Courage & Commitment : That's Culture
Shifting a deeply embedded culture is complex and difficult. What happens when things don’t go to plan? When you learn that your perception doesn’t match reality? How do you as a leader continue to lead and move forward with the journey in the face of a significant setback? Leaders need courage, focus and long term personal commitment to sustain change. It is something Rebecca Kardos, CEO of Aurora Energy knows firsthand. In an honest and thought-provoking presentation, Rebecca shared her personal story and insights as a CEO of the ups and downs of culture transformation.

Christian Campanella
HR Director
Pernod Ricard
Leaders Impact : That's Culture
Over a period of a decade, Pernod Ricard Winemakers undertook significant change within their Australia operations as they reshaped their business footprint. During this time, successive employee engagement surveys demonstrated poor results and made Pernod Ricard Winemakers ask the question: what impact does leadership have on culture and performance? Christian share's how they answered that question by developing leaders who positively impact their teams and have achieved business results which exceeded expectations.
Robert A. Cooke, Ph.D.
CEO / Director

Collateral Damage : That's Culture
We see it all the time, organisations keep making the headlines and as you get into the text of it, it’s about the collateral damage that they have caused, due to something they have done; finding more and more, that it’s attributed to their culture. Dr Cooke talks about the relationship between an organisation’s culture and collateral damage, and how it can enable us to work to reduce the likely hood, the probability and severity of collateral damage.
Kate Evans
Group Executive People & Culture
SHAPE
Performance : That's Culture
We know that Constructive Cultures deliver better business results. Kate share's her story of how SHAPE’s vision to have a highly constructive culture is being lived everyday as ‘the way we do things around here’. Demonstrating an undeniable link between the Constructive Culture Shape has built and the amazing business performance they achieved because of it. The SHAPE journey has involved making tough choices, increasing accountability, and building leadership capabilities. Kate shared the decisions, approach and performance data through her insightful and personal experiences with SHAPE.

Sustaining Success : That's Culture
Sustaining performance is not about forever being outrageously successful and constantly growing – the notion of sustainability, is it could be about innovation, continuous improvement, overcoming obstacles, putting up with disruption, and surviving through such disruption. Shaun talks about the relationship between leader’s impact, decisions leaders make and the impact this has on the way people believe they have to behave in an organisation.
