Reimagine Leadership: Leading as a Host, not a Hero or Servant

This interactive session introduces you to the Host Leadership metaphor and model. This dynamic approach redefines leadership by using the metaphor of hosting. You’ll learn to balance the two key moves—stepping forward and stepping back—to effectively engage, invite, and empower others.

Explore the model’s four positions that guide your presence and actions and delve into the six roles of a Host Leader, such as Initiator and Space Creator, to foster collaboration and build trust. The good news is you are already being Host-like in your role. This workshop will help you look through the lens of Host Leadership to uncover where and how you can do more of it.

Through discussions, practical exercises, and real-world applications, you’ll gain tools to lead with presence and flexibility, moving beyond traditional heroic or servant leadership paradigms. Engage with the metaphor, Explore the model and tools to transform your leadership style, empowering those around you while achieving organisational goals. Join us and Embark on your Host Leading Journey.
