Lunch and Lead: Blindspotting with Dr Kirstin Ferguson

  • Free
  • Talk

What if the most powerful thing a leader can say is 'I don't know... yet?'

In today's complex world, our greatest strength isn't having the answers. It's 'blindspotting': the ability to see what we're missing.

From leadership expert Dr Kirstin Ferguson AM, Blindspotting: How to See What Others Miss is a vital new tool shaped by her own extraordinary career, from a fighter squadron to the C-suite and the ABC boardroom. Grounded in honesty, curiosity and flexibility, it's a game changer for anyone ready to see the world and themselves with fresh eyes.

Join a free lunchtime keynote talk with the author at Mary Martin Bookshop on the upper level of the Southgate Shopping Centre in Melbourne's CBD.

The talk will be followed by a book signing with the author.
