Transformative Leadership in Action

Rethinking leadership, impacting the world

Why we developed the programme

Same Skies Transformative Leadership in Action programme

Increasing social disruption

There are an unprecedented 79.5 million displaced people in the world. Many live in uncertain circumstances with insufficient support and protection. 

Community-based solutions

Top-down solutions

Too many attempted solutions are designed without sufficient involvement of the affected communities, relying on unsustainable handouts.

Cross-sectoral collaboration

Lack of cooperation

The world is growing more interconnected, yet, stakeholders are not collaborating sufficiently to resolve social issues. Opportunities are missed and resources wasted. 

Same Skies Transformative Leadership in Action programme

Promoting global citizenship

We all share an ethical responsibility to care for each other, the next generations, and the planet – as individuals, entities and governments.
