Leading Through Disruption

---

FROM DISRUPTION TO COLLECTIVE ACTION

​
As a Lecturer in Transformative Leadership at Oxford University and former Head

of Disruption & Innovation at PwC, Leo helps leaders not just map the drivers of

disruption — but break through institutional and individual threat rigidity and

mobilise the long term strategic response.

At Oxford’s Smith School of Enterprise & the Environment, Leo leads a multi-disciplinary team researching the cognitive and structural barriers to transformation. His work is grounded in a simple but powerful insight: It’s collective efficacy that drives the intention to act. There is no transformative leader. There is only a transformative team. Leo’s focus is on unlocking the diverse power of mission-based teams—translating insight into the intention to act and drive real change.

Whether delivering keynote addresses, moderating global summits, or advising Fortune 500 boards, Leo brings a unique combination of business experience, academic insight and engaging delivery. His sessions are fast-paced, combining cutting edge research with real world practice. They challenge assumptions, provoke new thinking, and equip leaders with practical tools and leadership skills that are essential to driving change under disruption.
