The Los Angeles-based AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF) is a global nonprofit organization, providing cutting-edge medicine and advocacy to over 1.5 million people in 45 countries.
AHF is a complex organization for the leadership team, spread over many countries all over the world. Leaders collaborate closely with their global colleagues, which requires specific skills around agility and self-awareness. In addition, an organization like AHF faces a challenging political landscape operating in 45 different countries in four continents, which leaders need to confidently and nimbly navigate as required.
In 2020, AHF’s European Secretariat – based in Amsterdam – was looking for ways to help their European leaders enhance their effectiveness. They specifically wanted to focus on growing leaders’ self-awareness and agility, reflecting the sense of urgency that comes with AHF’s challenging leadership work. In addition, there was a wish to focus on developing their Emotional Intelligence (EI), which ties in not only with the self-awareness development goal, but also leaders’ ability to understand other people’s viewpoints and influence them as required.
AHF – Europe decided to work with Talogy on this project, both because of our market-leading Emotional Intelligence tools, and because we already had a warm and trusting relationship from working together on previous projects.
