WHICH ORGANISATIONS: Brought heads of private sector organisations, public
sector bodies, political leaders and leaders of NGOs together into a collective
learning space. Their common goal was the desire to have a positive impact on
their organisations, their countries and their region. We have held these across
Sub-Saharan Africa as well as within the region of Southern Africa, Asia
(drawing people from India, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Malaysia) and Latin
America. WHO WE WORKED WITH: Leaders, influencers and manager from a diverse
cross-section of sectors and occupations. WHAT WE DID: Offered established
leaders from the public, private and voluntary sectors who are at or near the
CEO level, an opportunity to transform what they and their organisations do.
This was done using transformational leadership theory and experiential learning
techniques to enable cross-cultural conversations and mutual learning. This
enabled each individual to draw on new techniques and cross sector experiences
to develop their thinking and practice. OUTCOMES: Leaders who lead with a
greater sense of themselves, the systems they work in and the wider network of
leaders that they can both influence and draw on as a resource. Shifted the way
leaders see their responsibility and accountability not only to their
organisation but to the wider context in which they work. Created a network of
leaders who together are committed to make change.
