AFI is organizing a Working Group Leaders Workshop on Team Effectiveness virtual meeting on Tuesday, 20 April 2021, at 12:00 UTC.

The workshop is aligned with the recommendations proposed by the Working Group (WG) Leaders at its meeting in Kigali, Rwanda on 8 September 2019 and further during the virtual leaders meeting on 10 March 2020. The objective of the workshop is to strengthen WG content leadership, have an intentional approach, and develop a strategy to ensure greater member participation in the WG and subgroup content development.

The workshop is envisaged to prepare and train WG Leaders in facilitating active participation, contribution and greater task performance across teams (WG subgroups) to deliver on broader WG and thematic area goals and targets. Additionally, the content of the workshop will also focus on topics related to psychological safety and psychological distance based on team dynamics. The facilitator for our workshop is Professor Colin M. Fisher, a scholar, author and teacher of team leadership, creativity and improvisation from University College London.

For any questions or clarifications including confirmation of your attendance, please send this through to eliki.boletawa@afi-global.org or adeyemi.omotoso@afi-global.org.

Please confirm your participation by 16 April 2021.

We look forward to an engaging and fruitful discussion to foster collaborative efforts towards advancing financial inclusion for the network and with a specific focus on the critical role that the working group plays in AFI achieving its vision of a policy leadership alliance.
