This is a working draft of the Leadership and Race synthesis. The final publication will be published later this year. Introduction: We live in a multi-racial world where the ability to accumulate wealth, find a job, attend a good school, or live in a healthy neighborhood is largely determined by race. This publication explores the ways in which our current thinking about leadership may actually be contributing to these growing disparities. We believe that we need to change our leadership development thinking and approaches in order to become part of the solution to significant racial inequalities.

A New Leadership Mindset for Scaling Social Change
[view]

-
Over the past 50 years our thinking about leadership, whether in communities or board rooms, has been heavily influenced by heroic models of leadership. We traditionally think of leadership as the skills, qualities and behavior of an individual who exerts influence over others to take action or achieves a goal using their position and authority. Leadership for a New Era was launched because we believe this way of thinking about leadership is only one part of the story -- one that does not fully recognize leadership as a process grounded in relationships that are fluid, dynamic, non-directive and non-unilateral. Understanding leadership as a process requires us to think very differently about how change occurs and how we work with others. We will never mobilize leadership at the scale needed for significant progress on social justice or any other complex issue without expanding our thinking about what leadership is, how it works and how we can support it.
