Leadership as we know it is evolving. In a world of rapid change and increasing complexity, the old paradigms of command, control, and competition are giving way to a new kind of leadership—one rooted in authenticity, opportunity, collaboration, and purpose. But what does this shift truly look like in practice?

To explore this transformative journey, we’re excited to share a powerful dialogue between the creators and facilitators of A New Kind of Leadership, Rudy de Waele and Rowan Andrews. In this video, Rudy and Rowan introduce the core concepts of the program, offering an inspiring glimpse into the tools, insights, and practices that make this course so impactful.

In today’s fast-changing and complex business landscape, leaders are constantly faced with decisions that have far-reaching consequences—not just for their organisations but for society and the planet.

After working a couple of years on my personal growth and inner transformation and moving to Ibiza in 2019, when talking to men, I often felt a feeling of superficiality, disconnection, of something lost, of not being present, sometimes a deep feeling of discomfort, a lack of bonding, of not truly being who you are, …

Because you’ve been the world’s prototype for success, but also the archetype of entitlement. But it doesn’t seem to make you happy, does it? Because the world around you doesn’t want that anymore. And so the man you’ve become doesn’t make sense anymore. Therein lies the wound.

It is likely that the ongoing evolution of gender and intimate relationships will gradually transform not only human sexuality but also sexual identity.

A journey to find my truth within, my absolute truth, unconditioned from any judgement, blame or shame I was conditioned to growing up or may have gathered throughout my life.
