Safarini – Leadership Journeys in Africa

What is Safarini Leadership?

Safarini means “on a journey” in Swahili. We take global leaders out of their comfort zone and on immersive journeys of self-awareness and new perspectives.

Your journey centers on a multi-day trek through Kenya’s awe-inspiring wilderness with elders from indigenous tribes that have thrived there for centuries. Together, you explore radically different approaches to shared leadership challenges.

You push yourself physically and developmentally, challenge your assumptions and elevate to new levels of self-awareness, resilience and cultural competence. You emerge a more holistic, versatile global leader with the experience of a lifetime to draw on as you confront present and future challenges.

The Challenge

Amidst historic global connectivity, we are less connected and more polarised than ever.

As a leader, you face unprecedented uncertainty, from climate change and AI to generational strife and mental health.

These challenges call for elevated leadership, which requires immersion, creativity, and deep wisdom. You cannot find these in windowless hotel conference rooms, webinars, motivational speeches, or sensistivity trainings.

The Opportunity

Cultural immersion is proven to enhance your creativity and self-awareness, which are fundamental to elevated leadership.

Immersion in nature has similar effects on creativity and improves your focus, concentration and ability to learn.

Your Safarini journey blends these immersive environments with a unique opportunity to build relationships with peer leaders; an unparalleled opportunity for personal and professional growth and development.
