Insights Conference - Leadership Reimagined: Breaking the Silence on Culture, Communication & Accountability

Insights by The Formula

Leadership Reimagined:
Breaking the Silence on Culture,
Communication & Accountability

Poor Leadership Is Costing You More Than You Think.

The Formula’s flagship event is back – and it’s putting leadership under the microscope.

After the success of last year’s event in 2024, Insights returns in 2025 with a bold and urgent message: employee disengagement is not a talent problem – it’s a leadership one.
This half-day conference will explore the unspoken factors driving your best people out the door: toxic workplace cultures, critical communication failures and a leadership vacuum at the top.
Backed by fresh employee research and led by world-class speakers, Insights Conference is a wake-up call for those ready to face the hard truths and fix them.

Keynote Speaker:

Benjamin Drury – The Culture Guy

Global workplace culture expert, TEDx speaker and trusted advisor to global organisations including GSK, Bulgari and high-growth start-ups, Benjamin Drury headlines this year’s conference with a powerful call to action:

“Poor leadership doesn’t always shout. More often, it’s the silence—the absence of direction, the lack of accountability, the failure to communicate—that quietly erodes trust and motivation. These are the silent killers of workplace culture.”

Drury will unveil real-world strategies for building trust, psychological safety, and performance-driven cultures from the inside out.
