H onest Talks with Fourth Day is back with Leadership in 2020 – a discussion which explores the big issues impacting business leaders today.
A space for open conversation, Honest Talks offers you the chance to explore ideas with others, without fear of condemnation.
The intention of Honest Talks is to facilitate free flowing conversation – with our panellists and compère leading a discussion rather than dominating the debate. We’ll be taking our in-person meet-up online, with limited tickets to maintain the intimate feel of previous events.
Honest Talks: Leadership in 2020 will discuss how a business leader can be an effective figurehead in 2020; the challenges presented by Covid-19; when being a public figure is essential and when it’s best for a business to build a reputation beyond one individual.
Whether you’re a business owner, your own boss or an employee, we’ll be asking about the importance of leadership in turbulent times and how you’ve been affected. How has the pandemic altered your leadership style? What have the challenges been? When should business leaders speak out? Is there ever a time when it’s okay to say nothing?
Fourth Day PR has gathered a panel with a range of viewpoints to stimulate a lively discussion. We invite attendees to join us on July 22nd at 4pm.
