Insights that drive impact

We will explore what it takes to build leaders who perform in uncertain environments, drawing on practical, real-world approaches to leadership development. We will look at how organisations are evolving their approaches, where traditional methods may be falling short, and how more experiential, applied models can drive stronger performance outcomes.

At this year’s Pilotlight Summit, we will bring together businesses, volunteers and charity leaders to explore how skills-based, cross-sector collaboration can help charities navigate an increasingly complex environment. Through practical insights and shared experience, we will look at what it takes not only to withstand change, but to use it as a catalyst for building stronger, more resilient organisations. We are delighted to welcome Dame Julia Cleverdon DCVO, CBE as our keynote speaker. Dame Julia became Chair of The National Lottery Community Fund in 2024, having previously chaired Teach First, the National Literacy Trust and Place Matters.
