SAFE leadership summit in November

South Asian Federation of Exchanges (SAFE) is holding a SAFE Executive Leadership Forum meeting in Tashkent, Uzbekistan on November 5-8.

The programme will feature a mix of lectures and case studies to be delivered by highly accomplished leaders both from the academic and corporate sector having education and training from institutions like Harvard, Yale, LSE and Wales.

Besides the high class training, it shall also expose the participants to the rich cultural and historical landscape of Tashkent, said the SAFE. "The Leadership Forum is designed for organisations that aim at developing such leadership skill sets in their existing and potential high impact decision makers, which are required in today’s highly competitive and challenging environment."

SAFE is a forum of 24 member entities of South Asian Region, UAE and Mauritius; providing them a platform to share, exchange and promote the technologies, experiences for therapid growth and development of capital market and work towards the regional as well as global integration.

The SAFE Executive Leadership Forum will effectively build understanding on how to foster strategic thinking, team performance, inclusivity, and the leadership agility amongst the participants of the Forum so as to enable them to effectively contribute to the growth of their companies.

In today’s competitive and constantly changing global economy, leading companies are becoming increasingly aware that real growth in the future will come from successful leadership and effective decision making rather than from mergers and acquisitions, and even less from ‘business as usual’. As the role of a modern day executive changes from managing a single task to balancing multiple projects, therefore more than ever before, organisations today need successful strategic leaders with the ability to take full advantage of the available resource capacities as well as the market opportunities and challenges. Accordingly, SAFE’s Executive Leadership Forum shall provide an ideal opportunity to such organizations who are interested in the development of their most prized asset into the leaders for tomorrow, and to promote, train and coach them for new roles.

The SELF is being launched with three objectives/visions; first and foremost is to develop diverse, non-traditional ethical leadership; secondly, to mobilize collective thinking and action to improve cross border business linkages and thirdly, to create and realise a shared vision based on collective progress.
