ELEVATING PURPOSE SUMMIT | Nov 7 2017 | BANGKOK

The DNA of Success

One of the world's most influential leaders in the realm of conscious business leadership shares with Thailand's management leaders his methodology in creating a holistic work environment that faces today's corporate challenges, including the retention of rising stars, mitigating satisfaction in the workplace, running a profit-turning business while bringing higher purpose into their organisations to create sustainability.

Keynote speaker Guillaume Gauthereau calls on his experiences as a CEO of Lalique, founder Totsy (Top 10 US E-commerce company), 2012 E&Y Entrepreneur of the Year recipient in NYC in saying 'After many years of corporate career, and as a founder/entrepreneur, I realized that most of the company who had struggle or failed, were not because of the business model or idea but because of the issue of the leaders and the organization to understand individual aspiration."

Guillaume will empower and steer CEOs, Professionals, Managers, Entrepreneurs and young Future Leaders through these challenges while helping them to create an aligned purpose for the good of all within their organisations, showing these leaders how to get the buy in of all within the organisation, with concrete tools to take away.

"Some recent studies have shown that 30% of CEOs suffer from depression. Leaders end-up in a hamster wheel for success, money, fame which does not provide the fulfillment they expected despite an apparent success. " says Guillaume.
