and build their own future.

integrated control. DANNY DAVIS

8. “Brand value in the future
context”
An intense workshop format that
guides your best thinkers in a leap
beyond current realities to discover
where value lies in the context of future
markets.
“Is the value you are investing in
today going to represent value in the
future?”
“Where is your unique positioning
strength / differentiation / brand value
in the future disrupted digital world –
and what will lock in your success?”
Business owners, executives and
strategists come out of these sessions
with an altered understanding of
the existing and future value of their
business – and the shape of the journey
they are on.
Future Fiduciary challenges you to
consider “If you did everything you were
currently working on – who would you
be?. Is that who you want to be?”
This workshop helps you discover “Who
you want to be” and “Why?”. What does
future value look like for you?

9. “Your business –
in ‘future-effective’
mode”
Mature global organisations
direct significant programs of
innovation investment – yet their
staff, management, executive and
board remain deeply frustrated.
ADVISORY Corporate Innovation
INNOVATION AWARE GOVERNANCE
Staff and media blame out-of-
touch, incompetent leadership.
But this is far from the truth.
Deeply competent, highly
experienced passionate leaders
are making the best possible
decisions on the information
provided – but are blind to the
Future Fiduciary insight “Are we
appropriately invested in our own
future?”
Danny Davis is engaged by global
organisations to determine “what we
have not thought of, and what we
are not doing” in innovation, value
creation and assurance of sustained
peak performance.
“What is measured is done”. Danny
demonstrates the ‘Governance of
Value Creation’ perspectives and
practices that engender highly
effective corporate innovation
cultures and behaviours.

10. “The key to motivation,
delegated autonomy,
accountability and leadership”
Danny Davis mentors global corporate
leaders to overcome the immense
challenges of leadership in a world of fast
moving change and uncertainty.
The traditional characteristics of leadership fail
to deliver mastery in the context of Volatility,
Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity
(VUCA). Leaders cannot know all the answers,
everything that is possible and everything that
is happening.
Danny active executive mentoring style
empowers leaders with insight, advice,
perspective and tools to re-engage within the
complexity of VUCA and exert their personal
leadership styles and strengths with new vigour.
More than simply decision support, innovation
leadership and the governance of value
creation goes to influence the behaviours
and value contribution of all staff – and the
nurturing of an effective culture of innovation
and sustained performance growth.

11. “We are all technology businesses
– like it or not”
Danny Davis guides mature organisations to
develop systemic Digital Mastery – increasing
their capacity to extract business transformation and
strategic potential from the digital promise.
Digital Mastery is a critical core competency if you
expect to still be in business in the future.
Yet, most large organisations readily admit that their
application is far from optimal.
Danny’s experience and insight demonstrate the
role that people across all levels and in all facets
of an organisation need to play in effective Digital
Mastery – and how this systemic strategic capability
can be achieved.
Digital Mastery is as central to the future as
was manufacturing capacity post the Industrial
Revolution.
Danny helps plan and build systemic organisational
capacity to compete and win in the digital era.
DIGITAL
From Value to Disruption

12. “Making change happen
in complex living-system
organisations”
Danny Davis brings unique practical
experience and guidance on
achieving fundamental cultural change in
complex global organisations.
Systemic cultural and behavioural change,
collaboration, and better innovation
practice – are subtle beasts that cannot
simply be directed or achieved through
brute force.
Danny advises senior executive leaders
on how to constitute highly innovative
programs of fundamental strategic
transformation that build on existing
strengths, organisational momentum, the
aspirations of our professional teams, and
the untapped potential of governance led
transformation.
Danny advises on how to structure
initiatives to maximise the effects of
influence, the compelling nature of
communication, engagement with
governance, the chances of success and
the strategic value of outcomes.

21. We’ve spent the last two decades in an exhaustive pursuit of quality. Doing
things right. Turns out that it is far more important to be doing the right
things. Perfect execution of the wrong strategy is a certain pathway to disaster.
But, in a world of Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity (VUCA),
doing the right things requires insight and strategic stewardship across a
complex portfolio – balanced across timeframes, product categories, risks,
uncertainties and multi-bottom-line outcomes.
This unit uncovers the challenges, approaches and tools to manage value
creation, creativity, learning and experimentation to compete and win in the
future economy.

23. The US Military uses the term VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity) to describe the modern battlefield.
Some use the term to describe the global digitally disrupted markets we compete in.
Unfortunately, human beings have a notoriously poor natural capacity to judge risk, uncertainty and probability. 95% of people
claim to be better than average drivers.
This seminar develops a new appreciation for traditional risk management, uncertainty, probability of outcomes occurring, risk
mitigation, alternate strategies and graduated benefits realisation - and shows how they can engender a culture of learning,
experimentation and effective value creation.

24. There is a global glut of cash looking for secure investments within dynamic
and uncertain futures. Integrated Reporting <IR> and related disciplines
are developing ‘the next generation’ of multi-bottom-line, multi-time-horizon
corporate reporting and measures – alongside Active Ownership, Fiduciary
Capitalism and other conceptual approaches.
But what does performance and measurement look like? What are the
investment signals to look for? Can you identify the top performers and the
laggards in your own portfolio? Can you better understand the multi-bottom-
line, multi-time-horizon ‘posture’ of individual companies and your complete
holding to find and govern the balance that matches your objectives?
This presentation explores cross-discipline efforts to
engage with sustainable performance and uncertainty,
predicts where they will converge, and highlights the gaps
and exposures in current practice.

levels of innovation performance. Why?
The decision making processes in our organisations were designed to
identify, select and nurture the types of projects that were beneficial thirty
(some say 400) years ago. We need to tune (not discard) the governance
engines that power business decision making and performance to work more
effectively in the current conditions.

27. The 65% bulk of GDP transacted in inefficient, uncompetitive large corporate
and government organisations is ignored by Government innovation
policy focussing on startups and research. Meanwhile, fluctuations in interest
rates through the GFC demonstrate that government’s monetary and taxation

Timely adaptation of the economy, creating system-wide innovation capacity,
sufficient for the global disruptive revolution (akin to the industrial revolution,
