6. LEADERSHIP
PEOPLE…
... as leaders, having commitment, having capability
...different types of leadership might be important in the same leader, sometimes napoleon, sometimes someone
totally different;
CONTEXT…
...local problems, local issues…
PRACTICE…
...and “maybe the lessons that we can learn from the experiences are very translatable”
COLLABORATION…
...external agencies, companies,..
… is really difficult! It’s not black and white…
... we need to celebrate the success! Do we do that enough? Do we do that sincerely?
(Belinda Tynan)
