CXO 2024: The importance of digital leadership for an inclusive future

What is an inclusive, digitally enabled and sustainably focused leader? And why is this new leadership identity important in shaping the future?. 

Join WISE and Arup at the Hospitium in York for this exclusive WISE active + membership event for Senior Leaders and aspiring leaders in the STEM sector. 

The latest UN report warns that at the current rate of progress it will take up to 286 years to close the inequality gap. Why does it matter in a context of digital? Because this gap directly translates to the effectiveness of our technologies, many of which are built upon discriminatory and unequal systems and frameworks. 

Ola Gwozdz, Research fellow at University of York and Arup, is a data philosopher, an award-winning researcher and IoT innovation specialist with over a decade of experience in technology adoption. , Ola will explain why “Inclusivity isn’t just about evening the numbers but reshaping cultures, forming new identities and changing behaviours in a systemic and strategic way.”  

Ola Gwozdz, will present the ‘Chord’ mindset which offers leaders and organisations a framework to strategically align, integrate and cocreate EDI values. Learn how this new collaborative form of leadership creates new opportunities, innovations and financial gains for businesses.  

If you are a Senior leader in STEM looking to develop a more dynamic, resilient and sustainable organisation this collaborative three- pathed approach, centred around value, complexity and identity, could give you the knowledge, tools and mindset you need to shape an inclusive future.
