Girard and JoAnn L. Girard: Today when most executives consider the intellectual capital of their organisation, they focus on the present. They seek tools and techniques to exploit their organisational knowledge for some immediate gain. There is an emerging shift in thinking that will provide a lasting competitive advantage – the shift is from the present to the future. This workshop will focus on what executives should be doing now (or soon) to ensure the next generation of organisational leaders know what we knew. In other words, are we creating organisational memories today which will be useful to the next generation of leaders? Will today’s baby boomer based practices pass the test of time? Are our current processes the most relevant ones for the next generation of organisational leaders?
