The Myth of Change: Business and responsibility in the 21st century
What are the responsibilities of business? What should business leaders hold themselves responsible for, and to whom? In his talk Justin King, former CEO of food retailer J Sainsbury and current Vice Chairman of private equity firm Terra Firma will talk about the practices of business today, and the ways in which the changes that are being put in place by businesses are in many instances either ignoring or – even worse – recreating the problems of the past. He brings to the subject a serious perspective on what needs to change if business is to regain a position of trust, and insights into what you – as future leaders – need to consider.
The seminar is open for anyone to attend and will take place at Saïd Business School on Monday 12 June followed by a short networking drinks reception until around 7.15pm. Please remember that registration is required to attend this event.
