What if investing in your own leadership also contributed to a bigger impact in an inclusive and immersive way? Our Impact Leadership Journeys invite you to do just that. Spending, together with humans from different walks of life, a week developing yourself personally through a local collaboration health project in a foreign country, while immersing yourself in a different environment and culture. Confronting, inspirational and life changing! It is a win win win: good for you, good for your organisation, and good for the world.

The power of empowering people

Our work goes beyond an average excel sheet. Transformation of beliefs, values and world views within an organisation is led by people. That’s why we focus on humans; the individuals who can realise long-term, sustainable change. We spoke to Betty van der Molen, Global Talent & Leadership Development Manager at FrieslandCampina, about our longstanding collaboration to design LEAP; why she chose to work with us; how this leadership programme helped her become a better leader; and what she hopes for the future.

Our Work: The impact of long-term collaboration

Since 2015 we have worked together with FrieslandCampina. Together we have taken more than 250 young talents to over 10 countries across Africa, Asia, and Europe. Where they have worked together with 10 different social partners to vastly increase their positive impact on society; discover their reason of being; and become better leaders within their organisation. All this takes place during LEAP; the leadership development programme that unlocks the full potential of FrieslandCampina employees.

Een betere toekomst

Een betere toekomst creëren, dat wil iedereen wel. Maar hoe doe je dat? Bij Better Future doen we dat door leiderschapsteams uit het bedrijfsleven en uit de not-for-profit sector bij elkaar te brengen. Samen een week op pad om te werken aan strategische uitdagingen waar de organisaties voor staan. In die week brengen we de Theory U aanpak tot leven, in de praktijk en in ongewone settings, uit het klaslokaal en in de echte wereld.

Why NGO's are commercialising

Mission driven, B Corp, socially responsible. All terms used to describe companies addressing a social or environmental challenge. A sign of the times that profit creation and social problem solving are shifting towards each other. What’s more, this emerging trend of social entrepreneurship goes beyond transforming the for-profit sector; it’s actually changing the traditional social sector too. We see NGO’s increasingly applying business principles to solve social challenges, often changing their own legal structure in the process. But why is this happening?
