Why business leaders should take the opportunity to join a MD2MD meeting
(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, August 20, 2013 ) Freeland, UK -- Launched in 2010, Leaderfest has become one of the key annual UK events on the Leadership Development calendar. Run by Oxfordshire based Leadership experts, MD2MD, the event acts as a forum for accomplished business leaders to present and share their knowledge, experience and ideas.
MD2MD is a membership organisation for Managing Directors and other business leaders who aim to achieve greater success for their organisation. Every month, MD2MD members meet in small groups with the objective of developing their thinking, skills, knowledge and confidence, through challenge and discussion and through new ideas from expert practitioner speakers sharing their specialist real-world experience.
MD2MD Chairman, Bob Bradley, explains: “LeaderFest is an extension of the highly-successful ‘leaders learning with and from leaders’ peer model of MD2MD, and enables attendees to learn from the experience of fellow leaders both as they are interviewed on stage, and through personal interaction.”
Leaderfest 2013 attendees got the opportunity to meet and learn from like-minded leaders, as well as a number of high-profile entrepreneurs and industry speakers. They were provided with the tips, tools and techniques required to become more successful business leaders.
2013’s event was held in the world famous Pinewood Studios, and included a diverse range of speakers including Gordon Sanghera, co-founder of Oxford Nanopore, Roy Kimani, co-founder and CEO of nideo, David Speed, director of Graffiti Life, business speaker and author, Alex Pratt, and many others.
Feedback from the event was positive, with popular highlights including Alex Pratt’s discussion on the UK Government’s investment in high speed rail instead of high speed data infrastructure, and Gordon Sanghera’s talk on driving the UK’s healthcare technology.
Alex Minchin, Managing Director of Zest Digital, reported that "the quality of speakers and the format makes Leaderfest a really unique experience, all brought together within the stunning surroundings of Pinewood Studios. What stood out most to me was how candid and open the speakers were about their successes and mistakes, all of which help the attendees to grow and develop as leaders."
Plans for Leaderfest 2014 are already in motion, with expectations that it will be even bigger and better than 2013’s extremely successful event.
