Blacksmith is a boutique human-centred leadership practice. We forge better leaders, fit for the future not just today. We believe there is massive untapped potential in individuals and organisations all over New Zealand and the world. Potential that can make individuals more fulfilled and successful, organisations more sustainable, profitable and positively impactful, and our families and communities stronger and more deeply connected. We believe it’s time for a new kind of leader. Human-centred leaders who together will create the world we need for our shared future. Leaders who are examples of what’s possible when we commit to the deepest levels of humanity and responsibility in the ways that we live, lead and work. We believe that collective development of Executive Teams and Senior Leadership Communities is the missing link in evolving the kind of leaders we need to navigate and create our shared future. Leaders with the depth of trust and connection required for courageous, collaborative work. We believe that starting from a place of empathy, compassion, and understanding, both of Self and others, is fundamental to leading in a world of constant and convergent change. We believe it’s time for a new way of developing leaders. One that puts being human at the centre of leadership and its development.
