Systems Leadership is about how we lead when we’re not in charge and how we lead across our organisational boundaries, with a real focus on the importance of relationships, values, trust and behaviours.
Leaders can be anyone, anywhere across the system, as long as they are capable of working with others to create positive change.
Are you going to the Big Alcohol Conversation launch? Would you like to be more involved?
We will be hosting a meeting immediately following the launch event, hopefully in the same venue (TBC) and are looking for Manchester-based organisations to take part. It will be an opportunity for you to find out more about what is planned in the area, suggest groups and organisations to approach and help make sure we engage with as wide a range of people as possible. Lunch will be provided.
