Description
As part of the 2017-19 Jeanne Sauvé Public Leadership
Program, the Foundation invites bright young change-makers from a wide range of
disciplines and sectors from Canada and around to world to take part in a
remarkable leadership journey.
Following in the thematic footsteps of the inaugural
program, our next cohort of Fellows will explore the complexities of Public
Leadership for Culturally Diverse Societies: The Inclusion Imperative. The
2017-19 Jeanne Sauvé Fellows will be invited to collectively explore how
public leaders can help diverse societies to thrive by making inclusion of
all cultural groups a guiding principle.
The Program is a unique two-year opportunity. It begins with
a full-time residential leadership experience in Montreal with a dozen select
Public Leadership Fellows. This is followed by a field phase, in which Fellows
return to their respective communities and countries in order to apply the skills
and new ideas developed during the residential phase. Fellows benefit from
intensive leadership development training and support during the residential
year and some ongoing support from one another and the Foundation during the
field year.
The Jeanne Sauvé Fellowship is the beginning of a lifelong
personal and professional leadership development journey as part of a global
community of courageous, connected change-makers.
