Lead like a Wolf

Wednesday 19th February 10-11am
 

In the wild, wolves share leadership (the alpha wolf concept only applies in captivity). What does this shared leadership look like, what can we learn from it, and how can we apply it in our own leadership?

Share Like a Tree

Tuesday 18th March 10-11am
 

Trees communicate and collaborate with each other via the “Wood-Wide Web”. How does this vast, interconnected network work and what can we learn as leaders about sharing resources and information with each other?

Understand Your Ecosystem

Thursday 1st May 10-11am


Nature is a complex collection of interconnected, interdependent systems, where every factor depends on every other factor, either directly or indirectly. As leaders, how can we make use of our own ecosystem to generate positive change in our workplaces and the world around us?

Hang like Kelp

Wednesday 28th May 10-11am


The structure of kelp enables it to provide one of the most productive and dynamic ecosystems on Earth by combining firmness with flexibility and visibility. What does this tell us and how can we get the right balance in our own lives and leadership?

Work at the Edges

Friday 20th June 10-11am


The space where different natural habitats meet is known as an “ecotone” and is home to a greater diversity and density of species, known as the “edge effect”. As leaders, how can we harness the Edge Effect to encourage and engage more diverse perspectives and approaches?

Be Symbiotic Like Lichen

Tuesday 23rd September 10-11am


Lichen is made up of two distinct separate organisms, both of which both are necessary for its survival. This symbiosis makes it a pioneer organism which can colonise and thrive in the most extreme environments. How can we develop symbiotic relationships that enable us to thrive as leaders in a challenging world?

Listen like a Tree Frog

Friday 24th October 10-11am

​

Female tree frogs use their lungs as a noise cancellation filter to enhance the audibility of calls from their own species and suppress the sounds from other species in the cacophony of mating season calls. What can they teach us as leaders about avoiding information overload by filtering "noise"?

Adapt like a Ptarmigan

Tuesday 18th November 10-11am

​

Ptarmigans change colour in order to stay camouflaged as weather conditions change. As leaders, what can we learn from them about adapting to changing conditions and how can we ensure that we are agile enough to adapt whilst staying true to ourselves?
