Our Approach: Incubating Leadership
|
Leadership Matters in how we achieve our goals:
Incubating leadership is about connecting and supporting leaders who inspire meaningful change to expand insights in action through: Personal Leadership – Based on the belief that everyone has the burning ember of leadership potential, we are devoted to enhancing everyone’s leadership journey through experiential and innovative learning experiences, mentorship and rejuvenation. Leadership Learning Network - The community provides an intentional network of individuals who are willing to share and nurture ideas around growing expertise in leadership. Through this network the burning ember expands into a growing flame. Leaders from all levels, generations, and across the sectors of corporate, educational, and societal leadership bring together their challenges and ideas to learn from each other and create a network of supportive sharing. Meaningful Change – Working together the community exercises their leadership capabilities to produce ripples of impact by developing and sharing work products that will impact how we lead in the learning and working world in which we live. |
Share In The Experience This community regularly convenes to address relevant and timely leadership challenges. At the same time we partner with individuals and organizations engaged in leadership innovation by providing an incubation environment to for emerging ideas and prototypes. Here is an example of one such collaboration with Chris Ernst representing the Center for Creative Leadership.
