Leadership in Uncertainty
The Leadership Edition of "Where the Map Ends", for leadership conferences, HR and leadership congresses, chambers of commerce and business associations.
Content
What it is about
Plans and budgets provide security. Until something happens that nobody foresaw. Andy Fitze has led 23 expeditions to high latitudes and managed technology organisations for more than 25 years.
The leadership keynote is about how teams prepare for the unforeseeable, why responsibility cannot be delegated and when it is right to change the destination. With films and images from Svalbard, the North Atlantic and Greenland.
Learned on board
«For a skipper, communication is not the duty, it is the art.»
On board, you don't want to hear "Listen, I'm the Captain." "Yes, Captain!" very often. If it has to be said, communication failed beforehand.
Authority & expertise
“My title gives me the final say. Not automatically the best idea.”

Testimonials
«What Andy Fitze captivates his audience with is less a talk than an expedition. On the one hand into the deserted expanses of the Arctic Ocean, on the other into one's own soul and the question of what leadership really means. A true professional.»
