See keynotes with Alex DepledgeAn established business has customers, brand, data, a knowledgeable workforce, and in most cases money. Yet in every sector we see them being challenged by start-ups which have only two things going for them – investment, and speed. They shouldn’t win, but everywhere you look they are. In this keynote, Alex looks at what, and how, you can learn from start-ups and ways to beat them at their own game.
Many established businesses are ripe for disruption, to enhance their longevity and ensure their survival, but become fearful and stop dead when it comes to actioning changes. However, by failing to move forward, businesses often see their long-term prospects hit hard and growth stymied. In this keynote, Alex looks at the key triggers in recognising the need, and timing, to innovate and disrupt standard business models along with the key markers to help determine successful innovation.
The stats don’t lie – female founded businesses receive less than 2% of investors capital, and there are only 7 female CEOs in the FTSE 100. The spotlight has been on this issue for over twenty years, so why haven’t things improved? Have we ever considered that women ourselves might be part of the problem? In this keynote Alex discusses what we can each do to make sure that women are heard, get that pay rise, and most importantly ensure workplace equality. Alex’s journey shows that being a woman in the workforce can be a superpower, and how to use this power to your own, and others advantage.
