Who is it for?

• People in positions of leadership within businesses, organisations and communities

• Consultants, facilitators and trainers in the leadership and organisational development fields

• Changemakers – people who care about the future and want to take action

We're running this conference in partnership with other organisations and leadership development professionals who want to generate positive change in the world. We fundamentally believe that we can make more of a difference when we collaborate with others than when we work alone, and we hope that this exciting and inspiring day will  be the first step in identifying and bringing together a movement of people and organisations who want to create a better future for people and the planet through enlightened, compassionate, collaborative leadership.
