‘New Year, New You’? At Restless, our transformation started well before 1st January.
In November 2022 we held our Global Leadership Group meeting in Zambia. Attendance at this meeting was transformative in itself - historically our annual meetings were called ‘Directors Conferences,’ but over the past 18 months we have been intentional about changing our leadership team structure, bringing young people into senior leadership roles, moving roles out of the UK and really diversifying both who leads our agency and where they sit in the world. So - it’s no longer a ‘Directors Conference’ - titles and grades no longer matter, and attendees range from Senior Coordinators, to Managers to Directors, with everyone having equal accountability, voice and agency within our leadership structure.
This is a short podcast about why this year of transformation is so important to us and how we plan to proceed from here.
You will hear from Chanda Chisenga, Zambia’s Hub Director about how our global leaders supported the launch of Restless Development Zambia’s national strategy and how ‘this global leaders meeting provided the connection to clarify the roadmap on what next. How do we connect, how do we engage, and how do we think big picture?’.
You will also hear from our Co-CEO’s Alex Kent and Kate Muhwezi about what transformation and shifting power means, and from Naval Kishor Gupta - our India Director - on why transformation is so important. Yande Kalengo and Gabriel Iguma talk to us about their reflections as two of Restless Development’s newest Directors.Gabriel is fresh into the Uganda team to lead the hub, and Yande is our Powershifting Director (deservedly promoted from Manager to Director because at Restless we recognise potential and aren’t afraid to let young people lead).
