Covid-19 pandemic has dramatically changed the way we live and work. Governments and business leaders around the world are challenged to step up like never before. But is it just those in formal leadership positions that are called to step up? Certainly not. We have witnessed many examples of people from all walks of life who stepped up, accepting the challenge of leadership with ground up initiatives to lift the spirits of healthcare heroes, migrant workers, etc. This is a time to reimagine leaders as those who embrace challenges in their own context and are empowered to bring out the best in others. Everyone, regardless of their professional role, is called to exercise leadership.

This workshop is designed to prepare you to confidently rise to the challenge of leadership, cultivate virtues that enhance your capacity to act as a leader in your own context.

• Why the cultivation of virtues that builds one’s character is critical to navigate the uncertain future
