Decolonising leadership – illustrated! 🎨 We kicked off our leaders' closing retreat in Bangkok with a thought-provoking debate on how to decolonise leadership, presented here by the talented Matthew Buck at Drawnalism Ltd. ODI's Director of Global Advisory Sasha Kapadia, who oversees Tandem, chaired a conversation with three impressive speakers: journalist Heba Aly, leadership consultant Carlos Esteban Mejia Solano, and WWF's Alice Ruhweza. The discussion was followed by a lively Q&A with our leaders. We heard honest reflections about the challenges of decolonising leadership in the humanitarian and development sector. These were countered with ideas for how to move from talk to action, encouraging our leaders to press on. The illustrations, captured in real time as the discussion unfolded, reveal our key takeaways. #TandemLeaders #Decolonisation #LearningAndDevelopment #Leadership

Reflecting on African Leadership: Lessons from the Ground Up 🌍 Leadership in Africa is often discussed in grand terms, yet the most profound lessons come from those leading at the grassroots level. As I traverse this continent meeting extraordinary leaders, I see a common thread: resilience. African leaders face unique challenges—be it economic instability, political upheaval, or social fragmentation. Yet, they emerge stronger, weaving these adversities into their leadership fabric. How are you fostering resilience within your teams? Are we doing enough to nurture leaders who can transform challenges into opportunities? Let's continue this dialogue and share our experiences in building resilient leadership rooted in authentic African values. Together, we shape the future of our continent. #Leadership #Resilience #AfricaLeadership #Transformation
