Setting up an organisational development programme
“More infrastructure is needed to support capacity building in philanthropy – to educate funders, nonprofits and communities; to replicate proven strategies; to promote good practices; and to enhance the relationship of capacity building to the overall goals of philanthropy.”
Strengthening Nonprofits, Foundation Initiatives for Nonprofits Organisations. Thomas E. Backer in Building Capacity in Nonprofit Organisations, the Urban Institute, April 2001

The Leadership Foundation
‘Great leadership is about human experiences, not processes. Leadership is not a formula or a programme, it is a human activity that comes from the heart and considers the hearts of others. It is an attitude not a routine.’
Lance Secretan, Professor of Entrepreneurship
