Masterclass Topics
Gihan delivers these masterclasses as in-house workshops, online programs, or conference breakout sessions.
Seeing Into The Future For Recovery And Growth
In these uncertain times, many people fall into the trap of setting smaller goals or making short-term plans. But that’s the wrong approach. We don’t know exactly what the future will look like, but we can make some educated guesses. This is the skill of foresight: seeing into the future, identifying plausible scenarios, and using these scenarios in our plans so we’re better informed in setting course for the future.
High-Tech Meets High-Touch
Everybody’s talking about AI now! You know it’s important to your team and business, but if this is new to you, it’s not easy to know where to start. Understand the challenges and risks, possibilities and opportunities, and learn how and where to apply your knowledge for the greatest return.

Building a Culture of Change Agents
In a fast-changing world, it’s more important than ever to create a culture that welcomes and embraces change. As a leader, your job is to create a culture of change agents – with an environment that encourages change, respect and trust for the diverse experience and expertise of everybody in the team, conversations that matter for the future, and systems and processes that make change and innovation part of everyday work.
Customers On Your Side
Engaging with the Post-Pandemic Customer
COVID-19 has changed everybody’s priorities, and this changes how customers engage with you. The new customer has different wants, needs, goals, and aspirations – and the organisations that succeed are those that can adapt to these changes.
The New Rules For High Performance
Channelling Chaos
The old rules for productivity, performance, and success don’t work in our fast-changing world. The world is changing too fast, jobs and careers aren’t safe, and established businesses are being disrupted by nimble start-ups.
Digital First
Getting Digital Transformation Right
Digital transformation is a key driver for many organisations, but many leaders are starting from the wrong place. Digital transformation starts with people, not technology. When you and your team truly adopt a “digital first” mindset, you accelerate the journey, create new business opportunities, and create a competitive advantage in a fast-moving world.
Disruption By Design
Business as Unusual in an Uncertain Future
COVID-19 has shaken up every part of our lives, but the real disruption to your industry is yet to come. Every crisis creates opportunities, and with so much uncertainty about the future, it’s never been as important to innovate, think differently, scan wider, and look further – to future-proof your role, team, and organisation.
Future Mind
Staying Relevant in a Fast-Changing World
Change can be disruptive at the best of times, but the massive and unprecedented change from COVID-19 is especially challenging – and will be with us for a long time. We need a new mindset and skill set to manage change, embrace chaos, and thrive in the future.
The Best Workplace on Earth
Winning the War for Talent
The workplace of the future will be very different from the workplace of today, but it’s more than just technology and automation. The best workplace on earth is about the environment you create for attracting the smart, talented, savvy people with the skills you need for future-proofing your organisation. Those “stars” are in demand, and can choose where they work. Do you know what it takes to attract, nurture, and keep them?
Magnetic Messages Online
The Art and Science of Online Presentations
COVID-19 has accelerated the push to online presentations, and there’s never been a better time to become a better presenter. Online presentations are one of your most powerful communication tools – if you know how to plan, prepare, and present them well.
Building a Productive Hybrid Team
The Six Steps to Building Your Hybrid Team Culture
COVID-19 forced many office-based teams to work remotely for the first time. Now there’s a move to bring people back to the office, but many people want a mix of time in the office and home. If you’re a team leader or manager facing this for the first time, it’s not easy! Understand the six steps to build a positive hybrid team culture, so you can build stability, growth, and greater productivity into your team.
Reimagining The Workplace
A New Vision for The Future of Work
COVID-19 has transformed when, where, and how we work – with more people working from home, online meetings, hydrid teams, and virtual collaboration. The workplace of the future will never be the same, and smart leaders are using this opportunity to build a better workplace – with more flexible work, greater collaboration, diverse teams, and better work-life integration.
