The world’s leading business thinkers at the 2010 Leadership Summit

Discovery Invest will once again bring to South Africa some of the world’s most impressive business minds, to share their secrets and insights, at the Discovery Invest Leadership Summit on 11 August 2010 at the Sandton Convention Centre.

Speakers include Rudy Giuliani former Mayor of the City of New York, revered businessmen Johann Rupert and Adrian Gore and Dr. Mamphela Ramphele, renowned SA businesswoman and thought leader.

Considered the guru of the global financial meltdown, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, bestselling author of Black Swan and Fooled by Randomness, will enlighten audiences with his profound insights in how to design ways to live in a world we don't quite understand.

Stephen Dubner co-author Freakonomics and Superfreakonomics – among the decade’s top ten best-selling books – promises through his wry humour and strong storytelling to illustrate how economics, at its root is about incentives; and how, if you understand the incentives that lead a schoolteacher to cheat, you can understand what caused the sub-prime mortgage crisis.
