Organisations across all business sectors seem to face reputational crisis every day. Some are an annoyance, while others can threaten their very survival. Matt will lead a discussion on how executive hubris forms in organisations, its role in causing crisis, and what we can do to combat and fix the harm it causes. His own experiences as an HR leader combined with his consulting work gives him
an industry leading, unique and potentially provocative perspective. This will be a lively and interesting evening on an always-topical subject.
Matt Nixon consults, speaks and writes on leadership, reputation and legacy. After a career as a partner at Towers Perrin he worked for Royal Dutch Shell as HR Vice President running Organisation Effectiveness and most recently was a Managing Director and Group Head of Talent for Barclays. Matt now runs his own consulting firm, Disraeli Group, and teaches as visiting faculty at several business schools including Ashridge where he is an Associate. His book, Pariahs (to be published in Spring 2016), is an investigation of the role executive hubris plays in creating organisational crisis and damaging reputations.
