Acumen Academy Leadership Program 2022

FOR THOSE WORKING ON COMPLEX PROBLEMS WITH NO CLEAR SOLUTIONS

Building a more inclusive economy that serves the poor is risky work. It means disappointing those who benefit from the status quo, experimenting in areas most people ignore and failing more often than you succeed. Naturally, not everyone chooses to do this work.

THIS PROGRAM IS FOR THOSE TRYING DESPITE THE ODDS

Acumen has been changing the way the world tackles poverty for more than 20 years. Over that time we’ve gathered valuable insights that we’ve taught and field tested through our various leadership programs. We have synthesised and made these lessons available for leaders in Southeast Asia through this 10-week leadership accelerator.

This program facilitates deep introspection, cohort building, and an exploration of leadership concepts that are especially useful for those trying to tackle the complex problems of poverty and inequality.

You’ll learn how to see a problem more clearly, understand how to engage powerful stakeholders, explore your personal philosophy on what it takes to build a good society and more.

The experience is further enriched through a diverse cohort. Change will require leadership from all areas of our economy. You’ll join leaders from the social enterprise, nonprofit, corporate and public sectors to explore what it takes to build a more inclusive economy for your community and all of Southeast Asia.
