in a French pharmaceutical company challenged the status quo with a bold email about board diversity. Her message went viral internally. At first the CEO ignored it, but it had started a ripple, and months later, she had a new role, a published book,and then later became an independent consultant and received an award from the French president. “It all started with one short email,” Professor Hlupic


said. “Be aware how powerful each and every one of you are. You can start to create the ripples of change. I have always been of the mindset: be the change that you want to see in the world.”


LEADERSHIP WITHOUT BORDERS BUT WITH A CHANGE IN MINDSET Professor Hlupic has applied her Management Shift model with great success in multinational organisations across continents. “We can relocate the mindset,” she said. “We can give


them the same vocabulary and align them around the same level four culture, regardless of their national cultures.” Although everyone can contribute to change within


organsations, it is the leaders who can make the real systemic difference, but only if they are willing to change the culture and themselves in the process. “It is very important that it starts from the top, and then


it spreads elsewhere in the organisation,” she explained. “The Management Shift as a method and as a system for transformation is agnostic to any culture, location, industry, or size of organisation. I have worked with multinational organisations globally, as well as smaller businesses.” As she closed her speech, Professor Hlupic offered a


challenge – not just to leaders, but to everyone. “Let’s shift. Let’s connect. Let’s lead with conscious leadership to make this world a better place. When I relocated from Croatia to London I took all these conscious leadership principles with me, which are based on service, empowerment and compassion. “If leaders operate from Level Four behaviour and


language, it will spread like a ripple, and then they will elevate others.”
