2nd International Worldly Leadership Summit theme

The theme of this year's Summit was "Building a leadership ethic of responsibility and conviction" - connecting Business, Civil Society, Education and Indigenous Communities across the globe toward a shared agenda for ethical, transformative and connected leadership for the benefit of humanity across our world."

Summary

Following the success of our first Worldly Leadership Summit in 2009, our second summit again brought together top leaders from diverse sectors with leaders from a variety of indigenous communities and alternative perspectives. Together with our partners for this Summit: Ashridge, The Globally Responsible Leadership Initiative and The British Council, we believe that it is only by drawing on a much more creative range of perspectives that we will move beyond the stale leadership styles and approaches that have generated many of today’s challenges.

Outcomes

This was a Summit that integrated vigorous dialogue with an urgency to develop practical solutions and actionable projects. Our speakers and workshop leaders represented leadership wisdoms from many corners of the globe. They included indigenous leaders, leaders who will deepen our understanding of eastern philosophies, Russian leaders, leaders from the Islamic world, and many others from business, civil society, government, and education.

By bringing these people and ideas together, we will create new wisdoms to support the construction of a new leadership ethic of conviction and responsibility.

The 2nd International Summit was held on 6 - 7 September 2010 at The Leadership Trust. Podcasts and Video from the event will be available shortly.
