Nicholas Leeder

Most talks about manufacturing transformation leave you inspired and no clearer about what to actually do. Nick Leeder's don't. He works in the space where strategy meets the factory floor, and he talks about the decisions, trade-offs, and leadership behaviours that determine whether change delivers or stalls. Audiences leave with a sharper way of thinking about a problem they are already sitting with. Nick is the founder of Nick Leeder & Co and a Strategic Advisor to ITI Group. His clients range from large industrial companies and leading industrial software businesses through to Formula 1 teams. He draws on 25 years of leading transformation inside some of the world's most demanding operations, including Dyson, SKF, and PTC Inc., and is recognised by the World Economic Forum as a global expert in advanced manufacturing. He is a Chartered Engineer.
