Diverse Leadership in Sports and Physical Activity - End of Programme Event

Systems Leadership is all about amplifying a model of leadership that’s not about managing, but about how to make things happen, across sectors, in a collaborative way. It is designed to help people lead when they don't have positional power, levers to pull, or a large budget to wield.  

Over two years Manchester Community Central on behalf of 10GM have hosted a series of open workshops focused on storytelling, community leadership, collaboration and influence. Following on from this, in 2025 we launched a peer support project in Greater Manchester.
