Leadership Academy Breakfast Club!

At our next event we will look at the topic of leadership and accountability. 

In particular, we'll be discussing accountability and asking some tough questions, like: 

  • How important is accountability?  

  • How do we hold our teams accountable but in a psychologically safe way? 

  • What happens when leaders are not accountable in their roles? 

  • How do we hold ourselves accountable as leaders? 

We are very grateful to the Lord Mayor of Dublin James Geoghegan who has kindly given us access to the historic Oak Room in The Mansion House, Dublin 2. We hope you can join us on 19 September at 10:30am for what is sure to be an interesting discussion.

Testimonials 

"For me personally, the benefits of the Breakfast Clubs are many, key are the value of think-time, the cross sectional networking and having a product to offer staff looking to consider upskilling – in this regard promoting the breakfast club internally in Trócaire, in particular to my own team, is very relevant to the area of continuous leadership learning and development. - K. Casey, Head of Community Engagement & Outreach, Trócaire

The Breakfast Club created a networking space that feels open to all leaders, future and established, so that we can meet and make connections. Sharon encourages the early career professionals in the room to be the leads for discussion and she connects people with such ease who may have been too shy to make an introduction before.. I have found The Leadership Academy events extremely interesting and engaging, having enjoyed the variety of topics covered at the sessions and the space to network freely. I would encourage anyone who is thinking of attending a Leadership Academy breakfast to attend and get involved. - A. Ennis, former Recruitment Coordinator at 2into3 

The Leadership Academy is a wonderful initiative and space to foster leadership and personal growth for those of us working in the nonprofit sector. It is great to be able to not only share insights but also to learn and gain new insights from fellow participants at the events. I really enjoyed my involvement as a panellist on a Leadership Academy event, which was wonderfully organised by Sharon with great support from her colleagues in The Wheel. Would highly recommend getting involved and responding positively if asked to be a speaker, panellist or facilitator at one of the Academy events. Ní neart go chur le chéile – There is no strength without unity. - D. O’Corrbuí, CEO Carmichael
