“Chance favours the connected mind.” - Stephen Johnson
Great ideas often emerge from the fusion of individual thoughts or observations. In this particular spirit of innovation and knowledge-sharing, we brought together seventy diverse professionals at Mogens Dahl Koncertsal on May 24th for Atlab’s first CFO Agenda of the year. The event featured three inspiring leaders known for their impact on transformative workplace leadership.
These are a few of their key messages:
1. Managing culture. There is no one-size-fits-all
Led by Kristian Suomala, Head of Business Transformation at Pleo, discussions centred around the unique challenges and culture strategies that leading scaleup companies employ, particularly as they grow rapidly toward IPO status. Transparency was a key takeaway on this topic, and employing tools like Glassdoor can enhance trust and accountability during times of transformation – leading toward better and healthier work cultures.
2. Maintaning good culture requires consistency
Maintaining a healthy work culture requires consistent intentional effort as the company scales. This means taking the time to assess and regulate your efforts at every step of the growth journey, ensuring that no man gets left behind in the charge forward toward success.
3. Transformative Leadership Begins with Authenticity
Pernille Fritz Vilhemson, Chief People and Culture Officer at Hempel, stressed that there is no rule-book on leadership. Businesses with an “edge” are often led by leaders who are brave enough to be their authentic selves, and who trust in their own unique capabilities as a driving force of impact.
