Integrative Thinking
This keynote focuses on the ability to constructively face the tensions of opposing models, and instead of choosing one at the expense of the other, generating a creative solution of the tensions in the form of a new model that contains elements of the individual models, but is superiors to each.

Design Thinking
Roger Martin will teach the audience to balance analytical thinking and intuitive thinking, enabling an organization to both exploit existing knowledge and create new knowledge.

Strategic Choice Architecture
This presentation examines the process by which strategic choices are identified and structured so that they can be made in a way that leads naturally to productive action for the organization.

Incentive, Executive Compensations & Governance
In this keynote presentation Roger Martin explains how these key factors are all interrelated; the corporations that are such a big part of the productivity and prosperity equation require governance that ensures that they are using their financial, human and physical assets constructively.

Jurisdictional Competitiveness & Prosperity
This will define the relationship between the competitiveness of a jurisdiction – whether city-region, state or province, or nation – and the degree to which its inhabitants enjoy high and rising prosperity.

Social Innovation
The first topic in this keynote is the role that corporations can play in being better citizens, showing better stewardship for their world. The second is in the practice of social entrepreneurship— that is, entrepreneurial activities aimed more so at making the world a better place than making the entrepreneur rich.
