Program Journey

Our interactive program differs from other leadership programs in that it inspires individuals to discover their own leadership spirit, providing them with the tools to engage in the process of building and removing barriers to positive change within their communities. The program can be applied in all aspects of life; Individual, family, institutional, community, national, regional and even global.

The program is influenced by three basic conceptual frameworks (positive inquiry, systems thinking and Ubuntu). In addition to these three core concepts, the community leadership program has six interests, seven principles, and eight assumptions under which the program operates.
