Transformation Conference 2025

This was our Transformation Conference 2025

On October 2, we gathered 120 leaders, entrepreneurs, and decision-makers at Aston Martin Brussels for an inspiring journey beyond basecamp. Together, we explored what it means to lead bravely — in uncertain times, with real teams, and real impact.

Relive the atmosphere, the energy, and the insights that made this evening one to remember.

Start Your Climb: Leadership That Blooms

“A lot of flowers make a bouquet” — but only if each gets enough sunlight and water. In today’s diverse, multi-generational workplaces, leadership isn’t about uniformity, it’s about harnessing differences to create something powerful together.

Lucia and Stefan share 7 essential leadership questions — visualised as the petals of a flower — to help teams thrive. Through interactive reflection, you’ll discover which “petals” need the most care in your organisation.

Navigating The Avalanche Of Change

By Niels Chabot, Associate Partner at Business Markers

AI is reshaping the business landscape — but true impact doesn’t come from diving in blindly. In this session, Niels Chabot shows how organisations can take their first steps wisely, build momentum with early wins, and lay the foundation for bigger transformations.

With his guidance, your business can explore AI in a way that fits its ambitions, creating clarity, confidence, and real business value.
