Designing systems for leadership, learning, and living (built environment) to thrive.
Co-Leadership Conversation
The Co-Leadership Conversation is a virtual gathering place for anyone curious about leading together. Hosted by Polymathes Consulting, these monthly conversations bring together co-leaders, professionals, educators, researchers, and those exploring co-leadership for open and thoughtful dialogue about the practice and experience of shared leadership.
THIS MONTH'S CONVERSATION
In Episode 3, we turn our attention to male-female leadership pairs and explore what happens when two leaders of different genders share one leadership role.
Together, we’ll consider the dynamics, assumptions, opportunities, and challenges that can emerge within male-female co-leadership partnerships, and what these pairings can teach us about leadership beyond gender.
You do not need to have read the book or workbook to participate. Bring your experiences, observations, questions, and curiosity or simply come ready to listen and learn from others.
