Description

Mirjam Van Praag presents insights in entrepreneurial leadership (teams), based on her decades long globally well cited research, as well as on her ample experience working with entrepreneurs, boards and other teams. 
The insights van Praag presents, are relevant to all organizations, but especially to those where innovation is important (and isn’t that the case for all?). What are key factors for high performance teams in this rapidly changing world? World class teams are recognized for turning challenges into oppurtunities and by innovating in order to be the industry leader. 
What kind of attitude and skills are needed to drive innovation and performance? Van Praag argues why an entrepreneurial mindset is important to lead innovation, what this mindset entails, and how this can be developed.
What is the role of (digital) technology and the CIO or CTO and her teams? How can leaders in digital technology help to ensure that their organizations are sufficiently entrepreneurial to address important technological, geopolitical and transitional developments/challenges? Van Praag has a specific view on how leaders of (digital) technology can even better contribute to growing organizational value by developing a more entrepreneurial mindset.
Stay tuned and open minded to her (sometimes surprising) insights. She is looking forward to having a dialogue with you about high performance teams and the role of digital technology leaders to further create value for their organizations by not only bringing the technology but also by promoting the entrepreneurial mindset needed to create value from technological innovation.
