Reflecting back on what a fabulous time of learning, engaging and sharing it was at the Host Leadership Gathering hosted by St Andrew's Cathedral School. Amazing to have Mark McKergow present the Keynote address followed by a superb series of talks. I love the metaphor of a ‘Host’ as it captures the idea that you are both the owner of the activity and the servant. Brilliant to also see and hear Mark's skill, ability and passion for Jazz shine through as he enjoyed a jam session with our students! A huge congratulations to all involved, particularly Jason Pascoe at The Enactive Solution!

#HostLeadership EXPLORE I ENGAGE I EMBARK In today's fast-paced and interconnected world, the traditional "heroic" model of leadership is becoming increasingly outdated. Leaders who position themselves as the decision-maker can inadvertently stifle team creativity and collaboration. Instead, the concept of "Host leadership," as proposed by Mark Mark McKergow and Helen Bailey, offers a transformative approach that emphasises engagement, empowerment, and shared responsibility. Host leadership shifts the focus from individual heroics to collective success. We invite you to: EXPLORE Host Leadership. The Metaphor. The Model. The Tools. ENGAGE with Leaders who use the approach. EMBARK on the path of Host Leadership & step into a world where leadership becomes participative, Engaging and above all, Human.
