Social Business Academy Participants Go to Leadership Camp

This weekend, the third and final cohort of Social Business Academy participants from Latvia and Finland gathered in Tallinn for the Leadership camp to get inspired, connect and improve their leadership skills.

✨On Friday, participants explored design thinking principles in a session led by Elīna Bušmane and Charles Bourrier from Design Elevator.

💡Saturday started with participants learning about effective dialogue and critical thinking from Bart Cosijn from Estonian Dialogue Academy.

🌱 The workshop was followed by a session led by Kaspars Kondratjuks and Alberto di Genaro. Participants explored self-awareness techniques and practical leadership tools.

💬 On Sunday, the participants pitched their social enterprise ideas and received feedback. The topics ranged from art therapy to career support for women in tech. The most motivated people will have the opportunity to continue working on their ideas with mentor guidance.
