Sally Patten

Leaders of today need to be more flexible and resilient than they were 15 years ago, say the judges of this year's BOSS Young Executives awards, now in their 15th year.

"Learn fast, fail fast, fix fast. That kind of mentality, I think, is something that we are seeing as a leadership theme that you probably weren't looking for 15 years ago," said Michael Rebelo, chief executive of advertising group Publicis Communications in Australia and New Zealand and one of the three judges of the 2018 awards.
