Collaborative Learning
Business leaders more often than not, face uncharted waters both internally and externally. Not having the answers is ok. The community allows you to tap into collective knowledge and experience in a constructive, collaborative and empathic way, whilst remaining adaptive to test ideas and opinions and gaining unbiased feedback from your peers in planning a way forward. With Weightmans hosting and MD2MD facilitating, the aim is to build a community of manufacturing business leaders with a range of expertise, real world knowledge and insights to collectively become better leaders, running better businesses.

Leadership roundtables
This session is designed to enable the sharing of issues you are wrestling with at that point in time. The essence of the community is centered around the “challenge board method’, a unique, yet simple set of steps to unpack a challenge being faced. By the nature of the conversations, the peer groups are confidential where the attendees can really get into the nitty gritty of a challenge.
