Business Support Webinar Recording  - Leadership in a Crisis

Walpoleis the official sector body for UK luxury. Founded in 1992 as a not-for-profit organisation, it counts more than 250 British brands in its membership and is recognised in both Westminster and Brussels. As the voice of British luxury, Walpole’s purpose is to promote, protect and develop a sector worth £48 billion to the UK economy and the jewel in the crown of UK business.Walpole actively seeks out UK and international business opportunities, promoting growth in the industry through a programme of initiatives, including the annual trade mission and press showcase to the US. The UK China Visitor Alliance (UKCVA) has had great success lobbying government to make the visa application system simpler, helping bring more Chinese visitors to the UK. As founders of the European Cultural and Creative Industries Alliance (ECCIA), Walpole cements and champions relationships with Europe’s luxury and creative sectors, lobbying the EU on key policy issues like selective distribution and IP protection, and supporting pan-European business and cultural connections post-Brexit.

Insights into how to lead a team during a global pandemic, inspiring teams and planning for the future.

Within brands large and small, luxury leaders are traditionally expected to wear several hats and juggle multiple responsibilities even in the best of times. These last few months, a combination of health emergency and economic uncertainty has accentuated the challenges of maintaining personal effectiveness in the face of crisis management. Whilst there can be no single ideal response and ‘best practice’ may be impossible to define, how can leaders, both as individuals, and with their teams, best achieve their goals now, and face up to the new future?Our guests for this Webinar are KRISTINA BLAHNIK, CEO OF MANOLO BLAHNIK, and ANDY BIRD, LEADERSHIP CONSULTANT, COACH AND AUTHOR. Andy works with Walpole’s strategic partner Redrice Ventures and the leaders of some of their investee companies. CHRIS DOWNHAM, CO-CHAIR OF BRANDS OF TOMORROW will introduce the speakers.We have chosen to donate 20% of each webinar recording ticket sale to the NSPCC, to help support children at this particularly difficult time.This webinar was originally recorded on Thursday 28th May, 2020.
