Clarity over control: building organizations for an era that won’t stabilize
Leading in a world that never stabilizes
Join Eric Abensur, executive coach and former CEO and Marjolaine Catil, Investment Director at Newfund, for a RTTU Breakfast on how leadership and organizational models need to evolve in an environment of permanent acceleration and uncertainty.
Many companies continue to perform well, with strong teams and solid execution, yet decision-making becomes heavier, alignment harder to maintain, and leadership more demanding. In this context, models based on centralization and control often reach their limits, without obvious signs of failure.
This breakfast is an opportunity to step back and explore how leaders can adapt their posture and organizational setup to better navigate ongoing complexity.
What we will discuss
Why leadership models that once worked can start slowing organizations down
How decision-making and accountability evolve in flatter, more distributed teams
Common challenges observed in practice: ambiguity, false autonomy, escalation
When it makes sense to evolve your leadership model, and how to start pragmatically
The objective is not to promote a single model, but to share patterns, questions and concrete signals that help founders reflect on their own organization.
