leadership is something you learn by doing.
Future Leaders: A Movement for Change!
Welcome to the next chapter of Future Leaders. This is more than a course—it’s a movement of individuals committed to shaping a thriving future. Together, we challenge the status quo, empower each other with tools and networks, and lead with purpose in an ever-changing world.
Is this your moment?
Do you believe in the power of collective action? Are you ready to explore your unique ways of contributing to meaningful change? Are you willing to step into multiple roles—as a student, teacher, and leader—within a supportive community?
If so, this is your place.
How it Works
This immersive experience isn’t just about learning—it’s about discovering how you make a difference. Through hands-on practice and shared insights, you’ll not only expand your leadership capacity but also build the confidence to inspire and support the growth of others.
Starting in March 2025, you’ll be guided by participants from the previous iteration of the program. As part of their leadership journey, they will mentor and teach you, sharing their knowledge and experiences. This dynamic, “learning by doing” approach ensures that every participant contributes, grows, and evolves as a leader.
In the autumn, it will be your turn to step into the role of facilitator. Together with your peers, you’ll co-create and lead the next iteration of the program, passing on what you’ve learned and empowering a new group of future leaders to continue the movement.
What You’ll Learn
Through three interconnected modules, you’ll develop
the mindset, skills, and confidence to lead:
Self-Leadership
Discover your strengths, values, and unique contributions to the world.
Team Dynamics
Master collaboration and communication within diverse groups.
System Change
Learn to navigate complexity and drive impactful solutions.
By the end of the program, you’ll leave not only with a diploma but also with hands-on experience in facilitating and leading a real-world program. You’ll gain the tools, clarity, and network to continue leading in your unique way—and we’ll happily support your future opportunities as references.
Join us in this transformative journey of leadership,
collaboration, and meaningful action.

The interview has two functions:

- In the interview we will also go through the program structure and purpose.
We are co-creating this on a voluntary basis. This means that our main motivation must be to create a thriving future – and to have fun while doing so!
- Program FacilitatorWhy I am a part of Future Leaders
I joined Future Leaders because I am passionate about life, advocating for mental health, and building meaningful connections. I strive to live with kindness, creating a safe space for others while learning to care for myself. This journey is about self-awareness, compassion, and growth—acknowledging emotions, overcoming challenges, and leading by example. Future Leaders provides an opportunity to develop these qualities further, explore new perspectives, and contribute to a culture of integrity, collaboration, and authentic care. For me, leadership means fostering environments where people feel valued, seen, and inspired to make a difference, and I am excited to be part of a community that shares this vision. - Ramona AugustLead of Program ContentWhy I am a part of Future Leaders
I’m a dreamer with a heart full of ideas—visions that feel too expansive to be carried by one person alone. My passion lies in creating, collaborating, and bringing people together to make the seemingly impossible, possible. I often find myself in leadership roles, not just because of the scope of my dreams, but because I care deeply about how they come to life—with integrity, joy, and shared purpose. I joined Future Leaders to grow into the kind of leader who inspires and uplifts, who builds teams where people feel valued and connected. For me, leadership isn’t just about achieving goals; it’s about nurturing a culture rooted in ethics, care, and the kind of collaboration that turns visions into legacies. -

Why I am a part of Future Leaders
The community I found really helped me forward, and left me with a feeling that I helped them as well. Learning leadership skills tailored to the risks and challenges humanity will face in the future has been surprisingly easy to adapt into every aspect of my professional life, as well as my personal life. Truly listening, sharing experiences, trust and true vulnerability with others, and a multitude of other experiences I got through Future Leaders has really shaped me as a person, and my ambitions for the future.

Why I am a part of Future Leaders
I’m part of Future Leaders because I’m deeply committed to alleviating suffering by bringing awareness to the forgotten places of the psyche. I believe there’s a vital gap in our modern culture—one of emotional understanding and lived experience—and that we must take a stand for what matters most to us, which often arises from our own wounding. By honoring my own process of transformation, I discovered my purpose: to support others on their path back to wholeness and self-knowledge by transforming how we perceive conflict and life’s challenges. I’m here to embody a new kind of leadership—rooted in emotional awareness, symbolic insight, and inner coherence. -

Why I am a part of Future Leaders
I joined Future Leaders to gain deeper insight into how great collaboration can be fostered, and to meet and learn from people with diverse backgrounds and experiences. Coming from a background in international politics and humanitarian work, I was eager to explore how such cooperation can contribute to addressing the challenges we currently face. The Future Leaders approach—starting with inner leadership, then expanding to relationships and broader systems—has been especially insightful and valuable in this regard. -

Why I am a part of Future Leaders
I want to grow in this aspect of myself through presence, self-inquiry, and joyful exploration. I’m deeply interested in conscious leadership—a kind of leadership grounded in awareness, authenticity, and connection. I see Future Leaders as a space where I can meet myself more deeply, challenge myself with compassion, and evolve—and I believe it’s even more fun alongside other passionate, slightly crazy souls on a similar path.

Why I am a part of Future Leaders
Joining the Future Leaders Copenhagen program was a purposeful step in my growth journey. I was driven by the chance to engage with diverse emerging leaders and explore current leadership trends. The program offered more than new tools—it helped me reconnect with my leadership identity through workshops, collaboration, and reflection. I gained fresh insights from past experiences, rediscovered core strengths, and explored how they can adapt to today’s challenges. Most importantly, it helped me realign my vision, expand my network, and move forward with greater clarity, purpose, and confidence in my leadership path.
