Henley Masterclass | Re-designing Nordic Organisations for Industry 5.0

In a polarised geopolitical landscape, Industry 5.0 reshapes how value is created. The ability to maintain trust, resilience and long-term performance will depend on how effectively leaders close the gap between current capabilities and future complexity – much of it self-created. The cost of inertia is high and the future will belong to those with the courage to rethink the fundamentals—rebalancing control and capability, profit and purpose, and designing organisations that not only survive complexity, but to shape what comes next.

This topical and insight-driven event brings together Europe’s leading thinkers alongside HR and business leaders from Denmark. Together, we will explore how we can future-proof Nordic organisations — and why traditional models no longer meet today’s demands.

You’ll gain practical insights into:

• System-level redesign for resilience in a polarised world
• The new leadership capabilities required in the AI Era
• Organisational models that align fairness, capability and long-term value

Featured speakers:

Dr. Naeema Pasha – Visiting Fellow, Founder of
Henley's World of Work, a renowned expert and leading voice in AI, diversity, and future careers

Professor Nick Kemsley – Visiting Professor and Executive Fellow at Henley Business School, Leading authority on organisational capability, strategic workforce readiness and HR effectiveness
