“Being selected for the Keychange Talent Leadership Programme feels like it’s coming at exactly the right moment. I’ve been leading teams and projects for some time, but I’ve never had the opportunity to pause and consciously learn about leadership itself. I’m excited to develop this skill, gain new perspectives, and grow into a more confident, thoughtful, and responsible leader through the programme.”
