Leadership Conclave 2025 | “Wits, Warmth & Will”
What does it mean to lead in today’s world?
To think with wits, act with will, and connect with warmth.
The Leadership Conclave 2025 at Manchester International School brought together bright minds from across schools to explore leadership beyond titles — through empathy, intellect, and courage.
Student-led panels sparked inspiring conversations on:
- Brain vs. Brawn in Leadership Skills
- Logical Teamwork and Collaboration
- Emotional Intelligence as a Leadership Tool
- Inclusive Leadership in Global Challenges
- Perseverance in 21st Century Leadership
- Understanding The Motivation to Lead
A huge thank you to our guest speakers, moderators, and school heads for their guidance — and to our incredible IB Student Council for turning a vision into a movement.
The conclave left us reflecting on one powerful question —
Will the future have leaders, or leadership?
At Manchester, we believe we’re already nurturing both.
