The authors of Leading in a Wicked World, Sonja Wekema & Matthias Schramm, have first-hand experience leading and coaching international leaders in how to handle the Wicked World.

Marit Maij, Director Action Aid
'Leading in a Wicked World is a challenge. But as this inspirational book informs us, it is also something we do together. Ubuntu leadership teaches us that we can only lead if we create space for others and practice empathy. The book is a welcome addition to the Feminist Leadership Principles that lead our work at ActionAid. Sharing power and leading by example are at the hart of our daily practice. Thank you Sonja and Matthias for sharing your valuable insights.’

Lucas van Wees, Board Member WFPMA (World Federation of People Management Associations)
‘Another inspiring contribution to thinking and doing about leadership and organisations. With a nod to ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and in a beautifully crafted narrative.’
