Our East Africa Dir, Vincent Kalimba is in the US! He had the great honor to meet Her Excellency Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Former President of Liberia @MaEllenSirleaf at the @TeachForAll #PeopleFirstDev event at @FordFoundation this week. #mindfulleadership #conscioussocialchange
The future of development rests on the #leadership opportunities that can be offered to women & girls. Speaking at the #PeopleFirstDev event at @FordFoundation, @MaEllenSirleaf calls for breaking the barriers of discrimination to free women’s potential as leaders & changemakers.
I was pleased to attend the @TeachForAll #PeopleFirstDev event at @FordFoundation yesterday. My message was simple and clear: Give women and girls the #leadership opportunities they deserve & let them take charge of building a fair and equal future.
“Investing in leaders is like cultivating bamboo, it takes time”, says @elfafrica1 and @EPLeaders' @WakoliCaren.
Big thanks to People First Community and @TeachForAll for the great discussions at “Putting People, Agency and Leadership First” in New York today. #PeopleFirstDev
Well said! “Listen to the people and respect their priorities. Give them the opportunity to take charge. Take some risks so that those who are learning and building, can build their capacity” @EllenJohnSir #PeopleFirstDev
“So much of what we need we know: it’s not just about opening our hearts but also opening our heads and listening with a mindset of possibility” @AMInnovation #PeopleFirstDev
“Investment in leadership is equal to sustainable change. Let’s prioritize investment in leadership development” @WakoliCaren , Founder and Executive Director of Emerging Leaders Foundation #PeopleFirstDev
“It’s all about being able to give up control. If you are really taking a people first approach: you are saying you are going to invest in the leadership of people and let them lead change” @wendykopp #PeopleFirstDev
Our friend & partner @WakoliCaren from @elfafrica1 on a panel with @MaEllenSirleaf @darrenwalker @wendykopp @ @EmCollective @TeachForAll on @FordFoundation's #PeopleFirstDev session on what it takes to develop collective #leadership as a path to sustainability.
Important words from Ellen Johnson Sirleaf 👉 “We can’t forget: It is the women that make it work. We have to find a way to focus on how to address the many years of discrimination of women that have not allowed them to make a difference” #PeopleFirstDev
“When I asked why was something the way it was…the answer was always #leadership. The quality of the life people live is proportionate to the quality of the leaders they have” @WakoliCaren, Founder and Executive Director of Emerging Leaders Foundation #PeopleFirstDev
“Believe in the individuals and allow them to find their true power.” #PeopleFirstDev
“Being leader-fist is not at the expense of leadership teams. I always ask: Where is the insight into the community you serve coming from?” Anne Marie Burgoyne, Managing Director, @EmCollective #PeopleFirstDev
“It is easy to get excited about the idea of #peoplefirst - the challenge is for institutions to internalize their own mechanisms and understand what that really means. That is the real disconnect”@darrenwalker #PeopleFirstDev
Sustainable change depends on collective responsibility and action. We need a local, national and global movement for the transformation of education to go from vision to action. #PeopleFirstDev
This morning, @MaEllenSirleaf, @AMInnovation @EmCollective, @WakoliCaren @elfafrica1, @wendykopp @TeachForAll and I will consider how to invest in leadership development to create diverse, locally rooted leaders. #UNGA #ReimagineRecovery #PeopleFirstDev https://t.co/yVqPPQ56Pt
