Peter Laughter and Dan Rust continue their conversation regarding the concept of "Distributed Leadership" from the previous episode.Contact: https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterlaughter/

As a keynote speaker and leadership transformation raconteur, Peter bridges the gap between organizational theory and practical implementation. Through award-winning storytelling and evidence-based insights, Peter helps executives navigate disruption by showing how leaders can:• Release the shackles of command-and-control• Access collective wisdom of their teams• Transform culture to thrive in rapid changeThe stakes are immense:• 77 percent of employees worldwide are disengaged • 70 percent of digital transformations fail • Traditional leadership models are not keeping paceAll of this happens against the backdrop of a world on fire, where crises demand collaboration but we remain divided. Organizations that embrace a leadership model where authority is distributed and decisions happen closer to the front lines, can:• Reduce overhead by 40 percent • Ramp up productivity • Drive sustainable innovation amid chaosWhen collaboration becomes part of how we work, it spreads to our families, communities, and institutions, and eventually their politics ushering a better world for us all.Contact Peter: https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterlaughter/
