Event details

Testimonial from recent Master Class senior manager participant:

“My team has reduced by about 80% in the past 2 years, but the financial results for the year are the same. CALAgility System helped”

——Daniel Iriate, Care Incident Manager.


Many organisations are facing challenging times in highly uncertain contexts:

  1. How can employee morale, engagement and initiative taking be raised and fear reduced?
  2. How can productivity be increased and stress reduced?
  3. How can companies innovate to grow and survive in such challenging times?

The CALAgility System ® is a new system for organisational leadership designed for such times which get proven results.

Completed self-assessments in advance (available in Chinese and English):

  • Self- assessment for teams/organisation, looking at the principles needed for dynamic and agile productivity. Participants will compare their own confidential scores with cohort peers as well as a global data base.
  • Individual self-assessment that shows how agile/adaptive, responsive, effective, balanced and overall enabling the choices of leadership strategy are (available in Chinese and English). Highly customised report will give specific suggestions for further exploration. Workshop will compare cohort scores to global averages.
  • Participants will be able to compare their own confidential score with cohort peers as well as a global normative data base.

Participants will receive:

A high-impact interactive experiential half-day workshop that will introduce a genuinely new approach (NOT “old wine, new bottle”!). This will cover:

WHY leadership paradigm needs to change based on modern Western complexity science – how to lead upwards and sideways not just downwards in volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) times

HOW to get faster and better results in uncertain times with less stress and effort.
