Driving Business Benefits From The Pace Of Change
Business models break, new ones develop, technology evolves, regulations are revised and customers alter buying habits. Every industry is witnessing change, and Formula One is no different; as a multi-billion dollar sport, it has seen unprecedented change in the last 20 years. The number of events has grown, shifting from its heartland of Europe to a truly global calendar, which sees 65% of events in long-haul destinations. The media landscape is changing out of all recognition; gone are the audiences made up of families watching television together; instead, global sports are having to develop products to appeal to all ages and demographics across multiple digital media platforms.
Turning Safety Into Results
Safety has become a top priority in Formula One, with significant changes in risk management over the past 25 years. From 1950 to 1994, over 40 drivers died at events; since then, only one fatality has occurred. This improvement is due to clear safety priorities set by the sport’s leadership, supported by teams and race promoters. Process safety and a data-driven approach to incidents have led to cars that can withstand high-energy impacts. The FIA also promotes road safety globally through its Action for Road Safety Campaign. Attendees will learn about these advancements from John Doe.

Testimonials

The event went really well! Colleagues really liked it and liked how he structured his talk from examples to principles. They wished there would’ve been more time for discussion, but we ran out of time and used all of the 90 minutes. Some of the feedback received was ‘best external speaker we had in a long while’ (and they have seen a few). I am very happy with how it went.

Huge thanks to Mark [Gallagher] AND you for a fantastic session today. Please pass on to Mark [Gallagher] that I have received so many positive messages about the session, and my bosses are very happy – they found the session super interesting, relatable and inspiring. Mark did such a great job, and was a fantastic role model to those who joined who wouldn’t normally attend a DEI update (if you know what I mean….). As you know this was exactly what I was hoping for. Thanks again for bearing with us through the prep calls – it was definitely worth it on our side! And I do hope we’ll cross paths with Mark again.
