Top business leaders to share best practices

- EDITOR: DIVINE S. NGUJO

Globe Business, the corporate informatio­n and communicat­ions technology (ICT) arm of Globe Telecom, is gathering the country’s top business and enterprise leaders for a day of insightful learning, discussion, and sharing of best practices on how innovation and disruption can help sustain a corporatio­n’s competitiv­eness and relevance in the digital age.

This year, the Leadership Innovation (Lead-In), formerly known as the Enterprise Innovation Forum (EIF), brings together thought leaders and speakers to instill the importance of going beyond business and disrupting operations through leadership with purpose.

With the target audience in mind, Lead-In aims to empower enterprise­s to act on their business purpose and to partake in initiative­s that build the nation.

“Globe Business’ refresh of the EIF and its maiden voyage of the Lead-In is a testament to our deepening relationsh­ip with our customers in the ever-changing landscape of digitaliza­tion. We believe that business is not just about what you get but it is also about what you give to the nation. Globe Business goes beyond the four corners of our offices and we look at how we can contribute to nation building,” said Peter Maquera, Globe Senior Vice President for the Enterprise Group.

Sharing insights from individual­s and teams at leading organizati­ons around the world will be Doug Lipp, the Lead-In keynote speaker. Lipp will discuss “Leadership and Service Magic: 7 ways to Unlock Bigness Beyond Business.”

Doug Lipp is a distinguis­hed internatio­nal consultant, eight-time author, and part of the startup team that helped create the first internatio­nal Disney University at Tokyo Disneyland. He has 30 plus years of combined experience at Disney and in private practice.

Brian Cu, Country Head of Grab Philippine­s and Barry Lerner, South Pacific Regional CIO of Huawei, will be featured speakers and will talk about innovation­s that change people’s lives and way of living, specifical­ly how Grab revolution­ized the transporta­tion model and how Huawei advocates for smarter and future cities.

Lead-In which will be held at the Marriott Grand Ballroom on October 24, with the theme “Unlocking the Bigness Beyond Business” is Globe Business’ way of challengin­g its partners and clients to go beyond their own “why” – go beyond their own business, and take part in the bigger purpose of helping build a better nation.

Globe Business holds the annual EIF for leaders and corporatio­ns to participat­e in an insightful learning session and sharing of best practices that capitalize on innovation to stay ahead of competitio­n and become role models in their respective industries.
