The Leadership Learning Series provides engaging insight and experiences from thought leaders and practitioners in development from around the world. These interviews serve as brief stories about advice and experience that highlight collaborative approaches to leadership and can inspire many others to be better at what they do!
Each speaker presents their outstanding contributions in the area of Collaborative Leadership and Coalition Building in developing country contexts. Through these interviews, the leadership story takes shape as an adaptive process. This series demonstrates that leadership is a measure of the influence of the individual on others through their behavior and actions. The unique experiences highlight that leadership is the ability to mobilize people and resources, rather than just about position or authority. Each speaker has helped shaped the field, beyond the requirements of a position they hold or of an initiative they are involved in. As the series shows, leadership is often difficult to define, but easy to identify.
