After a short break in the month of August, Walk Talk Listen returns with a longer than usual, but inspiring and interesting guest, Josephine Sundqvist. In this episode, Josephine shares her journey from growing up in Africa, where her parents served as medical missionaries, to leading LM International, a Swedish faith-based foundation. Her childhood experiences, deeply rooted in community and holistic approaches, profoundly shaped her passion for leadership development and change management. Josephine discusses her work with LM International, focusing on empowering local leadership and integrating faith and secular approaches to tackle global challenges like health, education, and food security. She emphasizes the importance of breaking down silos and fostering cross-sectoral collaborations, including the involvement of faith leaders, local governments, and private sector innovators. Josephine also reflects on the need for transformational leadership, driven by inner development, to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In a thought-provoking conversation, Josephine highlights the interconnectedness of global communities and the necessity of fostering young leaders who can navigate the complexities of today's world.
