Abstract

We are in a leadership and motivational crisis today – as individuals, in our organisations, and as a society at large.

This interactive workshop with world-leading expert on leadership Sharath Jeevan OBE will bring together aspiring leaders in the Jesus College and Cambridge community to explore:

• the 3 big external shifts that affect us as leaders: the shift from Kind to Wicked Problems, from Extrinsic to Intrinsic Motivation, & from Managing Talent to Nurturing Potential
• how we can build deep awareness from within (Intrinsic Leadership) to ground ourselves as leaders, and be truly authentic within and across our work and personal lives
• how we can cut the umbilical cord with old “baggage” (particularly our own limiting assumptions, and social pressures to conform and compare)
• how we can navigate direction, deeply motivate ourselves and others, and nurture our own potential and of those we lead
• how we can take the first practical steps we can take to “show up”, role model, and lead others powerfully and differently

The event will be in the form of highly interactive “Guided Journey” – you will come out with a set of deep insights about yourself as a future leader. You’ll also have the chance to contribute to an exciting new body of work.

Join us either in-person or online – everyone will be able to participate in the workshop. Book your place through our Eventbrite page.
