Friday, Jan 23, 2026 from 10 am to 1:30 pm GMT+4
Overview

Learn how successful leaders navigate people, pressure and difficult conversations in demanding workplaces.

Leadership is tested most when conversations are uncomfortable, stakes are high and opinions clash. This immersive session equips professionals and founders with practical tools to manage conflict, give and receive feedback and drive collaboration under pressure.

You’ll also gain a rare investor’s perspective on how risks are judged and what sets truly high-impact professionals apart.
