NABUUR and Libre Foundation work together on Leadership training
The Power of Play
April 22, 2009NABUUR at a higher speed
July 15, 2009At this moment Erik Bos, the founder of Libre Foundation, is in Peru where he will train two groups of local leaders. A few NABUUR local representatives will be amongst the participants. This is not the first result of the collaboration between NABUUR and the new Dutch NGO Libre Foundation: in the first week of May, 16 Local Representatives of communities in Kenya participated in a Leadership & Communication training. By doing exercises and role plays, the group learnt a lot about their own leadership styles, open communication, coaching your staff, motivation of volunteers, dealing with conflicts, proposal writing and outside-the-box-thinking. “I believe that all of us came out of the training with something new and useful to our projects and communities”, said Lillian Muttimos, Local Representative of Budalang’i, “Please rest assured that this kind of leadership training is one that gets immediate results and it would be a good idea to provide opportunities to other Local Representatives where possible.” New trainings are underway! In November/December this year, a training will be organised in Zambia. And there are plans for trainings in Uganda, Nepal and another group in Kenya. Let's drink to that :-)
