Design Thinking for a Circular Economy Design Thinking for a Circular Economy The most critical and complex problem of our age is how to create a robust economy that is sustainable for all future generations. Design Thinking is a revolutionary and practical methodology, with principles and processes that help people approach complex problems and create collaborative, innovative, and human-centered solutions for Sustainability. The Circular Economy utilizes restorative and regenerative methodologies like 'cradle to cradle' and 'biomimicry' to reshape how we do business, while fostering robust equitable economies. In this dynamic presentation, we will explore how the Circular Economy depends on Design Thinking in order to re-think and re-make our systems and products with an understanding of our Value chains as Material flows. When we create an economy that is just for all, and that fits into our ecological system as opposed to ecology bending to our economy, then we can produce a future that is Sustainable for all.

Helpful Ideas for Your Journey to True Diversity & Inclusion Globally, organizations are committing to Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) at higher rates than ever, with 87% of respondents indicating that D&I is a stated value or priority for their organization. However, for many organisations, the commitment does not extend past a statement in their annual report and allowing diversity groups the time and space to meet. Many business leaders surveyed still acknowledge that being a member of a Minority group is a barrier to employee progression. While there is solid research year on year to show that greater diversity and inclusion leads to improved business performance, many companies are still catching up. In this session, we will acknowledge the difference between Diversity and Inclusion at work and explore what leading companies are doing to enhance both. We will also acknowledge the continuing role of unconscious bias and explore strategies for minimising its impact. What good D&I looks like What one thing makes the most difference in getting a D&I strategy embedded in the culture 5 additional examples of the most successful D&I strategies What you can do to improve your organisation's D&I environment no matter your role

Re-imaging the World´s Economic Data Remember the "Kodak Moment?' It was a term in photography popularized by Kodak to capture important moments. Well, right now there is a Kodak Moment going on in healthcare information sciences. It is associated with the attribute-based data structures that are the basis for the revolution in genetic diagnostics, clinical risk management, and personalized medicine. It is also the foundation and source of the advances in Big Data and Artificial Intelligence in healthcare. In this session, you will learn about a new innovation in business information management called the Locus Model and a new type of business information system called the Functional Information System (FIS). These important innovations have the potential to impact all data management in business, finance, and economics by introducing a universal standard that can unify the disparate systems in disparate countries that we currently use to classify and organize business, finance, products or job information.

Outstanding Leadership is of Essence We are undergoing an enormous amount of change. Aligning tools, acquiring companies, simplifying processes, creating new business models, onboarding new partners and designing new customer services are only some of the elements that constitute what we call "a year of transformation.' One of these efforts is the "Agile Transformation.' To achieve true business agility, we need to incorporate an understanding of a true agile mindset, its processes and structure into the whole company. This is a challenge since it touches upon all areas, including HR, finance and purchasing processes. This presentation will explore how outstanding leadership that models the right culture, behaviors and accountability is what makes or breaks this effort.

Servant Leadership Servant Leadership is focused on serving your team, rather than your team serving you. Out of serving one's team, a desire to lead is manifest. Servant Leadership is radically different than when the leader is leading first. When the focus is on leading first, it is very easy to use your power, your title (role in the hierarchy), or the fact that you were put in charge as the basis of your actions. When we employ servant leadership, we support our team as a whole, and its individual members, in their growth and development. We ensure that their highest needs are being met through our support and service. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.

Project Management and Developing Our Future Generations The growth of the project management industry over the past ten years has led to over 40% of developed countries' GDP being spent on new changes and deliveries.
