Degussa Leadership Profile

David is an arts trained consultant that works with businesses seeking to

Manage change
Communicate more powerfully
Motivate key personnel
Perform to achieve the best possible results and
Generate value through innovative means

In this interactive lecture he explores the universal myth of the Hero's Journey as a powerful metaphor for business, illustrating the analogies between the hero and degussa to

bring some of the messages and challenges of the organisation *more alive* for the delegates
offer some unfamiliar perspectives on familiar issues (like growth, value)

For example

The hero's journey perfectly illustrates the five attributes of the degussa leadership profile

Passion
Making sense of the world
Making sense of people
Delivering change
Courage and Determination

Like degussa, the hero often is someone who seeks to stand out from the crowd - to make a difference and move outside the comfort of convention

The path to profitable growth is seen as similar to the hero's journey from the ordinary to the extraordinary. Together we look at the step by step progression that make this journey possible.

The lecture will include example of illustrative film and music. The audience will be asked actively to contribute to the process - offering anecdotes and suggestions throughout.
