About
The Women In Leadership Conference 2023
Purpose-driven leaders recognise when there is untapped potential in their organisations. However, when this potential is left unused or underutilised, it can lead to misalignment between an organisation’s brand promise – external experience, internal culture and a disconnect between individual purpose and profession.
