With rapid business transformation and shifting workforce dynamics, leadership succession planning is no longer just about filling positions—it's about future-proofing organisations. This session will bring together HR leaders, talent development specialists, and emerging leaders to co-create innovative leadership pipelines that meet the evolving needs of the UAE’s business landscape.

After hearing a champion in leadership development share their expertise, participants will take part in an immersive Leadership Design Sprint, working in small teams to map out succession plans, identify leadership gaps, and craft innovative development programs tailored to their industries.

Throughout the session, live scenarios will be introduced, challenging teams to respond to real-time workforce disruptions, talent shortages, and evolving skill demands.

By attending, participants will strengthen their skills in:

Building a successful leadership blueprint through designing structured, future-ready succession plans which are aligned with business growth and the organisations long-term needs
Identifying and developing high potential talent through mastering strategies to assess, mentor, and accelerate leadership readiness
Balancing emerging and established leadership styles by discovering how to integrate new leadership mindsets with traditional corporate attitudes
