Deep Dive Sessions
The Deep Dive Dialogues will take place on Thursday, July 27 (the day before the formal start of the Action Forum) and consist of a full day of in-depth conversations and working groups. The 2017 Deep Dive Dialogues are From Idea To Impact: Leading Your Venture and Leading Toward Justice: Truth & Reconciliation. The additional cost to participate is $249 and space is limited.
From Idea To Impact: Leading Your Venture
Whether you’re designing your venture, exploring how to scale its impact, or planning for your venture to thrive as you move on, this session will better prepare you to navigate these critical junctures. Topics will include: How best to tap into the personal motivation that sustains you and drives you to do more? How to leverage your business or organizational platform? How to build trust in the communities in which you work? What does it really take to move the needle on the critical challenges of our time? Using the documented impact of the McNulty Prize Laureates over the past ten years, this session will explore lessons in leadership at every stage of your venture.
This Deep Dive is sponsored by the McNulty Foundation as part of the celebration of the McNulty Prize 10th anniversary.
Leading Toward Justice: Truth & Reconciliation
Over the last year, many things have changed… but the underlying challenges remain. It’s not as if racism, sexism, xenophobia and other scourges have disappeared. What do recent elections and referenda tell us about our fellow citizens and the cultures we live in -- and about the strength of the emotion on all sides of perceived difference within our societies? How does the new cast of leaders at the helm of governments across our countries and around the world impact our ability to meaningfully address racial and ethnic inequities in our communities and regions? And how can we rebuild connection and trust within our societies between racial and ethnic groups in an atmosphere reflecting such distrust? Building off of last year’s Deep Dive Dialogue: Race in America and the continuing effort to build a Truth & Reconciliation process in the United States, this Deep Dive will provide a safe space for continuing dialogue and for working groups to launch, evolve and scale Truth & Reconciliation efforts around the world. Additional time to collaborate on this topic will be available during the “Action Workshop” rotations throughout the week.
