His keynotes on how organisations respond to increasing disruption are insightful, practical and provocative. Speaker | Organisational agitator "We wanted someone who would engage our leaders differently, make them think along new lines, stretch their ideas, perhaps make some uncomfortable, but above all consider our future in a new light. Ade did this brilliantly. " Helen MacPhee, VP Finance, Astra Zeneca Ade believes organisations need to transition from inert process machines to sensing, adaptive living organisms if they are to capitalise on increasing global uncertainty. He has a background in IT and astrophysics. Writing for the Financial Times for over a decade enabled him to transition his focus onto strategic organisational matters.

The Intelligent organisation How to create an opportunistic, highly responsive and adaptive organisation. One optimised for increasing disruption and chaotic environments. The Trump effect Geopolitics is just one of many forces making the future unknowable. So it has never been more important to develop an organisation optimised for real-time adaptiveness. In other words, to always be expecting the unexpected. Leading in the age of disruption How to develop an approach to leadership that is less about the behaviours of a handful of individuals and more about creating an organisational nervous system that can sense, decide and act in real-time in respect of both opportunities and threats. Meet the cognitive athlete Most organisations are failing to harness the full potential of their people. Instead of treating people as cogs in a 'machine', we can play to their humanity and develop a team of high performing cognitive athletes, where your organisation becomes a cognitive gymnasium. Cognition: Integrating AI and human potential Whilst a focus on AI is understandable, squandering the power of human cognition is not. Integrating both natural and artificial intelligence creates the conditions for innovation at scale. Innovation becomes an organisational gene, rather than a decoupled department or 'centre'.
