Adaptive Leadership Collective
A community for business leaders to support one another with the challenges they face modernising their organisations.
About Alc
The Adaptive Leadership Collective is a safe and supportive space for leaders to help each other with the challenges they face modernising their businesses.
It was set up by Edwin in 2019 after many requests from business leaders looking for somewhere to discuss leadership related topics away from practitioners. The feedback from leaders was clear – there are many places for practitioners to gather, but very few places for leaders to discuss important topics such as culture, leadership, transformation approaches, executive support and operating models.
The ALC meets regularly around a theme, usually with a panel of experts speakers who offer guidance and share lessons with the community.

The Event
Throughout 2024, many New Zealand firms have significantly improved their organisations and work practices, reducing overlaps and handoffs and streamlining value delivery. As we look towards 2025, we have an opportunity to band together and help further improve our organisations, economies, and society.
In our last ALC meeting for 2024, we have three iconic NZ firms join our panel to share their experiences and lessons transforming their businesses:
- The Warehouse - Sam Kater, GM of Strategy and Corporate Development
- Air New Zealand - Joanna Gilbert, Agile and Lean COE Lead
- Kiwibank - Simone Darragh, GM People Transformation
The focus of the discussions will be:
- Business context and their overall transformation approach
- Lessons and learnings - what has worked and what hasn’t. What to watch out for.
- What’s next for 2025
In addition to the panel, you will have plenty of time to discuss concepts shared and collaborate with peers on how they are approaching similar problems. The intent is to work together for the betterment of all.
Target audience
The ALC is a safe and supportive space for leaders to support each other with the challenges they face in modernising their businesses. It is designed for business leaders - Heads Of, General Managers and Executives. It is not for agile practitioners, consultants, contractors, service providers or salespeople.
