What was Covered

• How Hanne and her fellow Co-Founders created new demand within the traditional industry of workforce and management consultancy services \\u2013 and how Hollywood provided inspiration

• Why Hanne thinks it is important for business leaders to foster entrepreneurship within organisations through pushing responsibility for human resource and P&L management processes as far down the organization as possible
• The top skill sets which Hanne thinks are essential to being successful in the future of the world of work

Key Takeaways and Learnings

• In a world of ever increasing pace of change the ability to course correct is essential.
• Inspiration is not hierarchical \\u2013 it can come from anywhere in an organization.
