Participants for the CLI 2009 programme have now been selected.
In May 2009 the British Council completed the nomination and interview selection process for this year’s CLI programme - all participants have now been selected.
Since then, the participants have undertaken a series of leadership workshops and have embarked on a range of individual and group development activities. These activities include formal training, mentoring, coaching, work placements and international collaborations. Participants have designed their own development plans to hone their leadership skills and develop their international understanding and connections.
We will be publishing information on how you get involved in CLI 2010 on 15 March 2010.
If you would like to be involved in future years take a look at our participant profile:
CLI is for those who are actively engaged in the cultural sector and who want to play a key role in its future. Participants don’t have to have experience of a leadership role, but they must be able to demonstrate a level of achievement and commitment to their sector/s, and importantly, a commitment to self-development and learning from others.
We are looking for future leaders who have the potential to:
- Be open in their thinking
- Act internationally in their work and networks
- Understand the political power of culture
- Have the tools of leadership which will enable them to influence their societies in key areas such as employment creation, economic regeneration, social cohesion, cultural policy formulation.
The British Council is working with a range of UK and international partners to develop Cultural Leadership International. We are also always keen to develop new partnerships and there are a range of opportunities for organisations and individuals to get involved. You may represent an institution and be able to offer a placement to a programme participant or you may see yourself as a mentor or tutor to an international participant.
