Understanding WAGGGS' Leadership Mindsets
The mindsets work together as a flexible system, offering leaders a tapestry of insights they can weave together into more intentional leadership behaviours. The mindsets take us on a journey that uses reflection to draw meaning from experience, explore that meaning from different angles, and translate what we learn into taking responsible action.
