BECOME A CHANGEMAKER
We live amidst a change of era which requires new paradigms and response to today’s most pressing global issues. A period where modern liberal democracies are at risk and new ideological principles are not yet defined. A unique historic moment of multiple economic, social and geopolitical uncertainties, as well as scientific and technological disruptions. And this at a moment in which the question of what it means to be human is more contested than ever.
We are living hence amazing times, times in which organizations and governments are called to work together to bring light upon a world deeply in need by building mutually-beneficial relationships, and to work towards innovative solutions—all for the common good of our global society.
This is not an era for government and business as usual. Too much is at stake—in our world, in our organizations, in our communities. This is an era for virtuous individuals, forward thinkers with diverse interests and backgrounds, dynamic and versatile professionals who are ready to lead meaningful and impactful change.
Such exciting task requires a new kind of leader that builds on a deep global and multi-disciplinary understanding of our reality in order to provide innovative approaches that transform our world for the better.
