Event information

When leadership drifts away from values, the cost is trust, credibility, and long-term success.

We see it in organisations where decisions are short-term, cultures weaken, and people feel disconnected from purpose. The question we must ask is: how do we bring values back to the centre of leadership?

The University of Cape Town, Values 20 South Africa, and the Durban Chamber of Commerce invite you to an important conversation on Values-Based Leadership.

This interactive 1.5-hour session, hosted by Dr Preeya Daya and Dr Stephen Akandwanaho, will explore four guiding questions: ?? Why do we need Values-Based Leadership? ?? What is it in practice? ?? How can leaders and organisations embody it? ?? What happens if we don’t?
