Umfolozi is located in South Africa and is considered the oldest wilderness park in Africa. Located some 260 km from Durban, it consists of 960 km2 of hilly area covered in savannas in central Zululand and is known for its wildlife and conservation efforts. The park is the only state-run park in KwaZulu-Natal to host the Big Five game: elephants, lions, buffaloes, leopards and rhinos. The park is known for its rich fauna and the white rhinos present, which were saved from extinction thanks to successful breeding programs in the nature park. The park now has over 1600 white rhinos; many hundreds of animals were exchanged with other nature parks in South Africa and beyond.

This Natural Leadership Program in South Africa is a journey of discovery. Awareness of what has shaped you, where you are in your life and what drives you. But also awareness that your head, your feelings and your heart are inextricably linked.

program

The program of about four months takes place mostly outdoors in the pristine nature of Umfolozi. Far away from the known and from the daily routine we simplify and slow down: seven days without watches, phones and computers. Read here the experience of one of our participants in Umfolozi.

Participants come from a wide range of organisations, including the private sector, government and non-profit organisations. Each programme brings together a diverse group of 4–8 leaders, senior professionals and entrepreneurs and consists of the following elements:

  • Intake interview
  • Foundation workshop
  • Leadership Trail in the Wilderness
  • Integration workshop
  • Coaching session
  • Membership in our community of more than 3000 members
