Talk: What Future Leaders can learn from the Montessori method (Devoxx UK)

Talk: What Future Leaders can learn from the Montessori method (Devoxx UK)

Last year, I had the pleasure of presenting a talk on the Montessori method and leadership at Devoxx Benelux. I was thrilled to offer an enhanced version of this presentation in the UK.

In contrast to the enormous cinema hall that hosted me in Belgium, the 120-seat room in the UK appeared quite modest. However, perhaps due to its crowded nature, I experienced a heightened sense of audience energy.

As always, watching this video will help answer some pertinent questions, such as:

  • What should I focus on to help my team perform at their best?
  • How can I balance intrinsic and extrinsic motivation at work?
  • How can I retain my top talents?
  • What actions can I take to motivate my team?
  • How can I assist in people's growth?
  • How can I encourage teams to take more ownership?

Generally speaking, compared to previous talks, I devoted more time to explaining why Montessori principles are increasingly effective in today's context and what modern research has discovered that supports this method.
