My message:

• The ability to inspire, motivate - and emotionally connect with people is a key skill for any leader; even more so in a global setting. It requires patience,  respect,  flexibility  and a high level of self-awareness
• Leaders as role models:  not to underestimate the “power” we have as individuals. As Nobel Prize Peace winner Albert Schweitzer said: “Example is not the main thing influencing people....it’s the only thing”.
• Let’s not wait for change to happen - as leaders it is our responsibility to seek and lead change
• Turn off the Blackberry, take some time for reflection - and celebrate your achievements
