Most businesses and organisations today face the onslaught of disruptive forces: of market
liberalisation, rapid technology advances, changing consumer behaviours, and new threats from
non-traditional competitors.
In this unique masterclass, Azran Osman-Rani, a successful entrepreneur himself, shares his
secrets of success. In particular, you will witness the story of how unprecedented innovation
in product development and management practices led AirAsia X to become one of the most
successful low-cost airlines in the world.
MASTERCLASS LEADER: Azran Osman-Rani In 2007, at the age of 36, Azran was appointed founding CEO of AirAsia X, the world’s pioneer low-
cost long-haul airline. He led the development of AirAsia X’s business model to break many long-
haul airline conventions. Azran currently chairs the advisory board for the Asia Business Centre,
Curtin Business School in Australia, and holds board positions with PT XL Axiata in Indonesia
and Apex Investment Services in Malaysia. He also advises start-ups and high-growth businesses
through Endeavor Malaysia, Kairos Society, and the Cyberview.
What is covered:
Manage risk and harness the ‘entrepreneurial spirit’ by using corporate venture
structures to attack new customer segments with ‘no-turning-back’ determination
Traditional strategic planning and budgeting are outdated. Gain strategic advantage
through experimentation
Harness customer insights and deploy design-thinking’s iterative problem-solving
processes to continuously innovate new ways to delight customers
Build a culture of curiosity and risk-taking by removing the fear of failure in your
organisation and prioritising agility over caution
Azran’s energetic, humorous and interactive masterclass uses his real-life experiences
in revolutionising a traditional ‘old economy’ airline industry, combined with his
business development work in the ‘new economy’ media and technology sectors.

Entrepreneurs and mature start-ups
Product developers and R&D teams
Team leaders and managers seeking to enhance creativity and innovation
in their teams
Value and Expected Outcomes:
Specific practical actions and techniques that you can deploy to infuse an
entrepreneurial spirit and an innovator’s mindset into your organisation
Working tools to bring about positive change and create business breakthroughs,
even in the most traditional industries and sectors
Inspiring case studies and examples from real-life projects to illustrate that
world-beating breakthrough innovation need not be high-tech or complex

There probably isn’t a music or newspaper mogul in the world today who wouldn’t like to wake up
tomorrow morning and find out the internet had just been a bad dream. But the digital revolution
was just a taste of far bigger things to come. Some business leaders will understand this, many
will not – and become irrelevant, and possibly dangerous as a result.
Drawing on lessons from commerce, art and science, this workshop will help you understand the
megatrends that will shape your business (and global economics) over the next 30 years; illustrate
how definitions of wealth, leadership and power will shift over the next decade; and it will
explore the new rules of corporate agility that will determine whether you prosper – or fall victim
to the unavoidable impact of rapid change.

helping you see where the world is going and how to adapt. He is the author of the international

Future he is helping organisations across the globe see their role in creating a better world. His
many advisory roles include working with Sir Richard Branson’s Virgin Earth Challenge, the GSMA,
Ashoka and CivilisedBank.
What is covered:
Mixing inspiration with challenging thinking, Mark will:
Guide you through the mega-trends and technologies that will bring unprecedented
threats and opportunities in the decade ahead
Give you practical, no-nonsense techniques for embracing this future
You will learn:
How emerging technologies and trends will disrupt our geopolitics and transform
your industry, your business, your career and your personal life
How definitions of wealth, leadership and power will change over the next decade –
and what this will mean for you and your organisation

Value and Expected Outcomes:
Enable you to anticipate and avoid new threats

Among the most common fears in management and decision-making are complexity and
uncertainty – something that all organisations and leaders try to avoid. But in doing so, they may
be losing the very thing that guarantees their long-term survival. Complexity is itself the engine
of collaboration that creates insight and inspiration and delivers the innovation much desired by
the leaders of today.
Dr. Beau Lotto and Lab of Misfits draw on the latest knowledge in neuroscience, behavioural
science and design thinking to offer a new way of looking at human behaviour and the process of
decision-making. The lab is a pioneer in its understanding of human perception and applies it to
create transformational experiences, helping leaders and organisations to embrace uncertainty
and use it to their advantage.
MASTERCLASS LEADER: Beau LottoDr. Beau Lotto is a globally renowned neuroscientist whose studies in human perception have
taken him beyond the scientific domain into the fields of business, education and the arts. He is
equally at home creating scientific experiments, running his two start-ups, giving talks, delivering
workshops designed for corporate leaders or making TV programmes (for the BBC, the National
Geographic Channel and PBS). Beau has given two main-stage TED talks and has spoken at a
Google Zeitgeist event, WIRED and at the G8 Summit in 2013. Beau is author of acclaimed Deviate:
The Science of Seeing Things Differently (2017).
What is covered:
The interdependent relationships between right leadership and right decisions:
Dealing with uncertainty – your brain knows how to solve this challenge
The (potential) power of diversity
Creativity of groups and the effects of others on individual decision-making
The concept of emergence and how to bring great ideas to life
How leaders can foster a space of innovation
Beau’s style is entertaining and informative. He explains not just HOW but WHY, which
enables you to apply his perceptual framework to your own life. His approach is very
interactive and gathers live data throughout his masterclass – an approach that enables
you to actively absorb the information being explored.
Value and Expected Outcomes:
Understand how to use uncertainty and complexity to your advantage
Master how to manage and adapt to change and address the innovation challenge
within your organisation
Learn how to apply the principles of human creativity to the diverse activities and
challenges you encounter
You will actually be part of this process of discovery in a lab environment, asking
questions and finding answers that will transform the way you think
Beau Lotto is tailoring his master classes to fit each client’s situation. Extension
towards a true Perceptual Neuroscience experience is available. With his Lab of
Misfits he will take the audience on a journey to explore human perception and why
we experience the world the way we do in order to thrive within an increasingly
unpredictable world.
Master classes with Beau Lotto lead to measurable organizational and personal
change.
