@AmericanExpress @AmexUK Leadership Academy for the UK & EMEA
The Academy is a free leadership development programme, specifically for high-potential leaders currently in, or identified for, executive roles in the future. It begins in June with an online session followed by a four-day residential programme, 9 – 12 July in London.
The programme is designed to support a new generation of
#Resilient #Changemakers across Europe, Ghana, Kenya, the Middle East, Nigeria, North Africa, South Africa, and the UK. It is for people in the non-profit sector who are intentionally striving to be better equipped to respond to challenges and keep going in the face of adversity.
Founded in 2008, the Academy builds the personal, business, and leadership skills of high-potential non-profit and social purpose
#leaders through multi-day, in-person training. In keeping with this vision, the Academy was launched in partnership with
@CommonPurpose in 2010.
