Konu

KONU is an international boutique consultancy for leadership development and change management.

KONU works with government agencies, Fortune 500 companies, non-profits and international organizations to create and implement customized leadership development opportunities. KONU’s clients include the World Bank, the Kellogg Foundation, the Robert Bosch Foundation, Abbot / St Jude Medical, Volkswagen and the California Public Utilities Commission. KONU has worked with several high-ranking government representatives – among them elected officials and cabinet members.

KONU’s methodology values participants’ lived experiences over prepared case materials and examples. Structured exercises are built around participant cases and stories. These real and relevant dynamics illuminate the complexity of real challenges and the politics of change.

As a result, the subsequent learning and action plans are directed at what matters most to our participants. In detail, a mixture of experiential and instructional methods will be used such as small group case work, large group exercises, presentations, 1:1 and Peer-coaching as well as individual reflections.

Symi Symposium Contributors

Symi Symposium participants who excel in their respective fields, provide Young Leaders with the opportunity to learn first-hand about the challenges they face, as well as how these influence their lives.

Cases of success, failure or a mixture of both, in which the pressures for quick fixes and solutions were high – and when leadership across different factional divides, narratives and values was needed, are analysed.

Young Leaders are able to apply the concepts they learn to their real-life leadership cases.

5-8 July 2018 || Rhodes Island, Greece

The 2018 Young Leaders Project started in the morning of 5th July.

The venue was Rodos Palace Hotel in the area of Ialysos, close to the beautiful capital of Rhodes Island, Greece.

It provided a stimulating space for participants to learn from each other, share stories and form lasting bonds in an atmosphere of self-exploration, intelligence and constructive deliberations.

Over the course of four well balanced days, participants had the chance to meet and socialize with likeminded peers, through a variety of activities both on-site and around the island. Building on the success of previous projects, on the first day participants were provided with a unique opportunity to join the closing ceremony and conclusions presentation of the Symi Symposium deliberations. They were also engaged in a specially curated program of leadership development that tapped into the invaluable cross-sector expertise and insightfulness of the Symi network.
