We’ve been talking about the world being VUCA—Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous—for some time. Now, the world is becoming more polarised, volatile, and complex than ever.
As a leader in a position of influence, how do you navigate uncertainty, engage effectively in difficult conversations, take meaningful actions, and create positive impact?
To do this, you need clarity, understanding, and confidence to navigate the complex and systemic challenges within your spheres of responsibility and influence.
This global mastermind offers a safe, thought-provoking space for leaders who are ready to challenge assumptions, develop fresh perspectives, and lead with clarity and confidence.
Each session applies a systems thinking approach to explore key themes impacting today’s world. Topics include:
- Navigating a Polarised World
- A Mosaic Approach to Leadership
- Gender Harmony (inclusive of Women’s Progress, Gender Identity, & What it Means to be a Man in Today’s World)
- Active Allyship
- Class vs Race Divisions
- What Comes After Anti-Racism
- Creating Meaningful Impact
Starting with a broad conversation in May, each month’s theme will evolve to focus on a key area depending on current priorities.
