In line with our saying “Knowledge is Energy. Knowledge Shared – is Energy Shared™” in late October 2010, Eb was invited to give a thought leadership presentation in Copenhagen at the Mannaz International Summit.
In front of guests from a diverse range of organisations, guests included representatives from Nestle, KPMG, Danisco, Pirelli, Danish Giants Flsmidth and even a representative from European Investment Fund. This summit presented another opportunity communicate our vision, of what the business models of the 21st century could and should be about.
A big thankyou goes to Mannaz for the invite and the opportunity and whilst i’m at it also a big thanks to our tribe member Dr Karen Moloney for her kind referral. This was a nice opportunity to spread the word of change and to encourage more action.

As the audience was largely made up of HR and Learning and Development professionals. The presentation was geared towards highlighting the importance of seeing people (learners, employees,talent) in a new context in order to create engaged, innovative, and
dynamic organisations.
Our message was that the 21st century will require MORE THAN SIMPLY information delivery, and ORGANISATIONS that want to innovate will need to create a “culture of belief and inquiry” THAT REQUIRES REAL engagement. The idea behind that is simply that People with Purpose and Belief are unstoppable and powerful.
It’s the responsibility of organisations to evoke that belief, otherwise, employees will leave, not join in the first place or underperform. The challenge of providing more value than your competitors will focus on how you engage with your tribe. Connections are the currency of the 21st Century.
So in line with our stated mission this presentation sought to positively challenge and inspire the current thinking around the management of brands, organisation and people.
