Initiatives

Mission

The mission of our initiatives is to bridge the leadership gaps to tackle the major challenges the emerging economies face and seize the opportunities the 21st C presents, and ultimately experience true and lasting transformation in one generation.

Vision

We see world-class youth, women, and diaspora leaders that transform their respective communities in one generation.

Goal

The main goal of these initiatives is to inspire, inform, equip, and empower world-class leaders that have a new mindset, the necessary leadership competencies, and solid character to transform their respective communities in one generation.

Objectives

The following are the generic objectives of the initiatives:

  • To increase awareness about the critical roles leadership development plays for sustainable economic and social development and in turn toward the transformation of communities.
  • To design and deliver stage-by-stage leadership development programs in partnership with hosting and sponsoring strategic partners to equip and empower leaders at various stages of development.
  • To offer periodic refresher leadership courses together with strategic partners to continue empowering graduates of the stage-by-stage leadership development programs and those that are in the corresponding Cohort and TOT programs.
  • To provide support systems and materials to continue to support the different programs of the Initiative.

Programs

The Initiatives will have the following 4 major initial programs to begin fulfilling their mission:

  1. 30 – 90 minutes awareness creation keynote ‘Bridging the Leadership Gaps: Raising world-class leaders who transform their communities in one generation.’ The talk will be delivered using various platforms to highlight the critical roles leadership plays and the kind of leadership development programs the community needs to raise its world-class leaders who in turn bring true and lasting transformation to the community.
  2. 1-day stage-by-stage leadership development programs (for 3 major stages of leadership) to launch cohorts
  3. Stage-by-stage Cohort and TOT (Training of Trainers) programs following their corresponding 1-day stage by stage leadership development programs.
  4. Refresher courses to Cohort and TOT members.

Note: We will closely work with the Host, the Sponsor, and other relevant stakeholders to design and deliver the right program (s) for your people. And also, in consultation with our strategic partners and other stakeholders, we will review these programs periodically and update them if necessary. We’ll also include additional programs as time goes and when the need arises.

Strategic Partners: PRO Leadership would like to partner with all stakeholders who care about the true transformation of the world one community at a time. PRO Leadership has identified its strengths and areas it can add value to propel the Initiative forward. We would like to attract other stakeholders as strategic partners to support the Initiative based on their areas of strength. The two key stakeholders we are looking for:

  1. Hosts. Hosting partners invite PRO Leadership to deliver the launching keynote, and work with us to arrange the stage-by-stage leadership development programs, and host the Cohort and TOT programs.
  2. Sponsors. Sponsoring partners support the Initiative by sponsoring Hosts financially and in kind.
