Adaptive Leadership: Leading when the answers aren't clear
Most leadership models assume a stable world. Clear goals. Known problems. Linear plans. But today’s reality looks very different.
Join the Fluxion Team and Giles Lindsay, best-selling author of The Adaptive Leader, as we explore what it really takes to lead when the path isn’t obvious, the system is shifting, and the work can’t be solved by expertise alone.

12.30pm – 13:30pm GMT
Whether you’re leading transformation, navigating uncertainty, or trying to mobilise people through difficult change, this session will help you:
Shift from answers to conditions
Understand why adaptive challenges can’t be “solved” and how leaders create the space for learning, progress and collective ownership instead.
Lead without certainty
Explore how to stay credible and grounded when you don’t have all the answers, without defaulting to false confidence or paralysis.
Distinguish technical vs adaptive work
Learn how to spot when a problem needs expertise and when it needs dialogue, experimentation and shared responsibility.
Mobilise people, not compliance
Move beyond top-down direction and into leadership that surfaces tension, invites contribution and builds real commitment.
Work with resistance, not against it
Reframe resistance as information and use it to understand what’s really at stake beneath the surface.
Build adaptive capacity over time
Discover how leaders develop organisations that can respond, evolve and learn, not just survive the next change.
