AIMS International’s Post

Recall our webinar on “Unlocking Innovation through Generational Inclusion”? 🌍✨ Just a few weeks ago, Shari Baddan from Aims International Colombia WE FIND&GROW YOUR LEADERS, and I at North Lead, member of AIMS International had the privilege of hosting a vibrant conversation alongside CanCham Mexico 🍁 , exploring how #generational diversity can drive innovation, resilience, and collaboration in today’s workplace💡. ⏩ Fast forward to now: #Generational diversity is more than a regional conversation—it’s a global priority. As part of AIMS International, we are proud to contribute to this dialogue, aligning with our global initiatives and thought #leadership on the topic. In fact, our President Dimitrios Kleftakis recently shared insights at the Association of Executive Search and Leadership Consultants (AESC) Global Conference in London on the importance of generational diversity as a key driver of transformation and growth worldwide. We are thrilled to amplify this message as the Americas voices in this conversation. 🌎✨ During my recent trip to Colombia, Shari Baddan and I took this discussion from the 💻 screen to real life. Meeting face-to-face with leaders and HR professionals, we explored these pressing questions: ✅ How can organizations integrate—not just coexist—as multi-generational teams? ✅ What does it take to turn diversity into a competitive advantage? 💡 Want to revisit these insights? Or explore them for the first time? The full webinar recording is now available on our YouTube channel🎥- Watch Here: https://lnkd.in/eDFhx5xk Let’s continue building a workplace culture that embraces every generation, driving innovation and resilience at every level. 🚀

How can leaders address generational divides? Generational echo chambers can be a problem for any business, but how they are addressed is vital. In this OBSERVE piece, Pedro Roberto and Charles B. explain how to break down generational divides to improve workforce collaboration. “Inclusive leadership filters to the rest of the organisation, leading to a 29% increase in team collaboration and a 17% increase in team performance.” 🔗 Discover the strategies for uniting your workforce 👉 https://lnkd.in/gnFD8bgN 📩 For more on our Leadership Advisory services, contact our consultants at https://lnkd.in/gTaCzYNh. #executivesearch #diversity #inclusiveleadership #leadership

🌟 Embodied Leadership: The Future is Human 🌟 As the date approaches for the "Embodied Leadership – The Future is Human" workshop, hosted by Women In Digital Switzerland Zug Chapter, I find myself reflecting on why I'm so excited about this event. In our rapidly evolving digital world, I've come to realize that while automation and AI are crucial for success, human skills are the secret ingredient that truly sets great leaders apart. Emotional intelligence, authenticity, and empathy aren't just buzzwords – they're the foundation for building trust, fostering inclusion, and strengthening resilience in any organization. This workshop, facilitated by Catherine Peloquin, MBA, PCC , promises to explore how a whole-body approach to leadership can: • Deepen our connection with ourselves and others • Enhance our communication and decision-making skills • Boost our executive presence and ability to inspire change 📅 Date: Tuesday, November 19, 2024 🕕 Time: 18:00 - 21:00 📍 Location: Zug Bibliothek, St.-Oswalds-Gasse 21, Zug - Dachraum, 5th Floor As someone deeply invested in the future of leadership, I believe this in event offers a unique opportunity to unlock our full potential as leaders in the digital age.

As the year draws to a close (hard to believe we’re saying goodbye to 2024!), many of us are reflecting on our achievements and planning for what’s next. I recently came across an end-of-year leadership checklist with valuable reminders: strategic alignment, setting big-picture goals for 2025, and building resilience. But there’s one item I believe is missing: Inclusion. If we want to lead effectively in 2025, we need to prioritize: Listening to unheard voices: Are you actively creating space for those who may not often speak up? Engaging with those who challenge your ideas: Real growth comes from stepping out of the echo chamber and embracing constructive dialouge. Listening was a recurring theme during the Asia-Europe DEI Dialogue session—and while many of us think we listen... think again! Demonstrating humility: navigating marketplace complexities, and the pervasive rise of AI, no single leader can possibly have all the answers. Inclusive leaders recognize this reality - they ask thoughtful questions, practice generative listening, and are open to learning from others. Inclusion is a choice. By intentionally nurturing inclusion, leaders can unlock higher engagement, better decision-making, and stronger organizational performance. Why this matters? Research shows that inclusive teams are 120% more likely to achieve their goals and 6x more likely to innovate. As you finalize your end-of-year checklist, ask yourself: Are you leading in a way that really includes everyone? Let’s step into 2025 not just with strategic clarity but with a renewed commitment to listening, learning, and embracing diverse voices. So, what’s on your end-of-year checklist? I’d love to hear your thoughts! #inclusion #listening #leadership

Executive Presence (EP) transcends mere charisma. It's about embodying inclusivity, empathetic communication, and authentic engagement—critical for fostering trust, sparking innovation, and navigating complexities. EP now demands leaders to champion diversity, equity, and inclusion, resonating with global shifts in societal values and workplace dynamics. Gone are the days where a polished appearance and strong communication skills sufficed; today's leaders must demonstrate genuine respect for others, listen actively, and adapt seamlessly across virtual and in-person platforms. This multifaceted approach not only builds stronger teams but also propels organizations toward sustainable growth and resilience. As expectations evolve, EP becomes a cornerstone of effective leadership, enabling leaders to connect deeply with diverse stakeholders, inspire collective action, and drive meaningful change. It's a skill set that transcends industries and borders, shaping leaders who are not just impactful but also empathetic and inclusive in their leadership style. Embracing these dimensions is not just a trend but a necessity in today's interconnected world. https://lnkd.in/gZb6cwaz #ExecutivePresence #InclusiveLeadership

🌟 The Value of Individuals vs. Positions in the Corporate World 🌟 In today’s corporate landscape, we often emphasize titles and roles. However, it’s essential to recognize that the true strength of an organization lies in its people. Each individual brings unique perspectives, experiences, and creativity that can drive innovation and foster a positive culture. While positions carry responsibility and authority, it’s the individuals behind those titles who truly impact society and propel organizations forward. As leaders, let’s prioritize nurturing talent, encouraging diverse voices, and valuing contributions beyond job descriptions. When we invest in our people, we not only enhance our corporate community but also create a ripple effect that benefits society as a whole. How do you see the balance between individual value and positional power in your workplace? Let’s discuss! #Leadership #CorporateCulture #ValueOfPeople #Innovation
