A unique interactive conference experience exploring innovation, transformational leadership and agility

A first in the UK, Relocate Global's Festival of Global Mobility Thinking will help your company to navigate the complexities of a rapidly evolving and increasingly globalised business landscape.

The theme for this event is how creativity and innovation can enable companies to embrace the challenges and opportunities of the future. We will address transformation and change in the workplace across industry sectors and regions.

Join us to share an innovative approach to problem solving that will allow time for thinking, creativity, discussion and networking. Roundtable sessions will be facilitated by our coaching partner, the Academy of Executive Coaching (AoEC).

Participants will come away with a bespoke action plan, a toolkit of resources, a network of new contacts, and access to a powerful community, so they can help move their organisations to the next level. See our top reasons to attend!

Get a flavour for the event with insights on hot topics in global mobility from some of our expert speakers and participants:


Andrea Piacentini, co-founder of the RES Forum, explains why the RES Forum's Learning Lab is sponsoring the Festival of Global Mobility Thinking.

“It’s great to welcome such a unique event that serves the global mobility arena. This interactive conference offers the opportunity to work with peers throughout the day on some of the toughest challenges facing global mobility professionals, and will no doubt be hugely rewarding.

“Exploring agility provides an excellent framework to look at complex organisational issues, and will hopefully define a clearer path for global mobility professionals to support their business in a more meaningful way. Leadership development features top of the agenda to help unlock potential for all those leading or managing change.

Keynote: Olivier Mythodrama

Transformational Leadership ­– Inspired by Shakespeare’s The Tempest

Phyllida Hancock 

Festival of Global Mobility Phyllida Hancock Olivier Mythodrama

Shakespeare's genius provides timeless insights into the human nature of transformational leadership, while the narrative drive of his great play The Tempest reveals the vital ingredients of a successful change initiative.

What kind of ‘storm’ do you need to create? How can you tell a compelling story to truly engage others? Can you manage different reactions and reframe the challenge accordingly? How might you need to change in order for the bigger change to be successful?

This memorable keynote session, with a lively mix of input, discussion and experiential exercises, will engage delegates and provide insights to build on for the rest of the conference, and to take back to your workplace.

Olivier Mythodrama’s clients are full of praise for its energy, passion and approach:

“The finest, and potentially highest-yielding, investment in our leadership development history to date.” CEO, Fujitsu
