About us
A human being is a part of the whole, called by us, "Universe," a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest -- a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but the striving for such achievement is in itself a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security.

The reflective inquiry technique used in OLDP is the most effective learning tool I have ever seen.

Our leadership programs and other services
Oxford Leadership Academy is one of the world's top leadership consultancies. Our leadership programmes and change management consulting help top management in the execution of their plans by aligning people, culture and strategy with a purpose beyond product and profit. While facilitating the process of organisational realignment, we ensure that the human dimensions are sensitively managed.
We offer a deep and pragmatic approach that helps organisations to grow, increase their value, transform their culture and become more responsive to the needs of society.
Oxford Leadership Academy's Values
At the core of our work is the passionate belief that society can benefit from the creation of value-driven leaders with vision and purpose beyond their own needs and interests.
Our executive leadership programmes are designed to enable people to become leaders with the character and commitment to build a more equitable and sustainable future.
Oxford Leadership Academy's Purpose
We are supporting the emergence of a new paradigm of character-based leadership that will result in a fairer, more humane and ecologically-respectful global society. We encourage leaders of major global corporations, governments, NGOs and international agencies to develop their sense of the responsibility that is owed to society as a whole. Great change can only happen if great leaders are in place, and we feel privileged to be part of that process.
At the centre of our executive development services is the Oxford Leadership Development Programme, one of the world's most popular executive leadership programmes with over 200,000 alumni from 90 countries.
The Oxford Leadership Development Programme involves the 'reflective inquiry' technique, enabling leaders to develop first from within, and then go on to lead and inspire their organisations with a consistent business vision.
and other programmes...
