It takes a courageous individual to hand over decision making to a colleague. Likewise, it takes courage to make decisions on behalf of that person while they’re sitting across the table from you. As part of an organisational leadership initiative, Kaye and Nicole spent a day (or closer to three months) learning from each other. The duo will reflect on the courage to take advantage of bi-directional mentoring opportunities, and the courage to take the lead (formally and informally).
