2024 Seed Effect Leadership Summit

Seed Effect Uganda kicked off the new year with its first-ever Leadership Summit! The leadership teams from all eight Seed Effect branches traveled to the shores of Lake Victoria in Entebbe, Uganda for three days of meetings, fellowship, and team building. It was a rare opportunity for these leaders to all be together in the same place to share best practices, discuss challenges, and plot out plans for the new year. 

The Seed Effect Uganda head office team, board members, and two of our US team members were also in attendance to soak up the feedback from the field. The bulk of the days were spent in sessions filled with lively discussion, but it wasn’t all work. The team also fit in time a behind-the-scenes tour of the Uganda Wildlife Education Center and fun activities like sack races that made the event even more memorable! Check out the fun in the video below!

“It was nice to be brought together as leaders from the different Seed Effect branches for the first leadership summit ever. It created an opportunity of sharing experiences and learning ideas from the different leaders across the branches. Thanks to the Seed Effect US team, the donors in the US, the board, and the Seed Effect Uganda head office team for making it possible to equip the leaders for better leadership across all branches of Seed Effect Uganda. I wish this continues to be implemented every year for better leadership skills in all branches of Seed Effect Uganda. Thank you!”
– Isaac Godwill, Senior Field Officer, Rhino Camp Branch

Amidst the dramatic growth of Seed Effect in recent years, investing in our leaders is a strategic way to keep the mission strong and vital. While we are incredibly proud of what we have achieved, we are always looking for ways to improve. Impact starts with leadership. We are fortunate to have an incredible team of Ugandan and South Sudanese leaders and it was a joy to start 2024 together!
