Bridging Leadership
The Synergos Institute has been evolving a leadership framework to enable its vision of bridging social and economic divides to reduce poverty and increase equity around the world. Synergos has engaged with a wide-range of development practitioners, academics and leaders to articulate this collaboration practice, called Bridging Leadership (BL). It has partnered with scholar-practitioners like Prof. Ernesto Garilao from AIM, Manila to co- develop the BL framework and applied the same in grass-root community leadership development in different contexts like India and Africa.
Synergos has identified bridging leadership as a core area of practice that is inclusive and recognizes that the complexity can only be addressed by convening stakeholders across the divides. Synergos is keen to integrate the “core elements” of BL in internal organizational and leadership development and apply the same in their partnership projects and networks.
