Sheffield gets new conference to inspire leaders

A new event called Leadership Unleashed is to be launched by Sheffield Chamber of Commerce and SHEAF to bring together existing and aspiring leaders, and anyone ready to explore what it means to lead with purpose.

The event, is sponsored by Westfield Health, takes place on March 7 (1-7pm) at The Showroom, Sheffield. It aims to provide opportunities to meet and connect with a diverse network of forward-thinking leaders.

Louisa Harrison Walker, Chief Exec of Sheffield Chamber of Commerce, said: “I’ve had the privilege of meeting many inspiring leaders throughout my career, and Sheffield is home to some fantastic examples.

“However, I also recognise that leadership is a continuous journey of growth and development – I’m still learning every day. That’s why having a space where we can explore, encourage, inspire, and support leadership is so important.

“By investing in better leaders, we can drive the economy forward and create outstanding places to work.”

Attendees on the day will have the opportunity to listen to keynote speakers, Laura Jordan Bambach and Brian Deane.

Laura is the Founder and Chief Creative Officer of Uncharted, a female-founded creative agency that combines the best new technologies with a diverse global community of creative talent.

She is also the former President and Chief Creative Officer of Grey UK, and Founder of SheSays – the creative industry’s largest global women’s network.

Brian Deane is a former professional footballer, and manager, with a career spanning 21 years and over 700 games and 200 goals. He played for clubs such as Sheffield United, Leeds United, West Ham, Middlesborough, Leicester and Benfica, before going into professional football management in Norway’s topflight division, managing Sarpsborg 08.
