A Sostibl Program
The leadership your organisation
needs for the AI era
A 6-week embedded program that develops the capabilities AI cannot replicate — assessed by independent experts and verified with a Sostibl Convergence Score™.
Why L&D Needs a Rethink
The leadership gap AI is making worse
Classroom training, coaching apps, and 360-degree feedback tools develop the skills AI is already replacing. What they cannot develop is the kind of leadership your business will depend on in five years: the ability to act decisively under uncertainty, build trust across unfamiliar systems, and drive outcomes in contexts where the rules haven’t been written yet.
This is what Sostibl develops — and what the Sostibl Catalyst Index™ measures.
The Program
Six weeks. Real challenge. Verified impact.
The Sostibl Corporate Leadership Program is a structured 6-week embedded leadership experience, purchased from your L&D budget. Three phases. One integrated score.
Phase 1 · Weeks 1–2
Orient & Frame
Executives are introduced to a live community challenge in Guinea — a context defined by genuine complexity, scarce resources, and high stakes. They assess the landscape, build their team, and define their approach.
Phase 2 · Weeks 3–4
Analyse & Build
Participants work alongside youth innovators and local community leaders to design and test practical solutions. Facilitators from Sostibl and FCRS guide structured reflection on leadership behaviours throughout.
Phase 3 · Weeks 5–6
Present & Prove
Teams present outcomes to a panel of independent assessors. Results are scored against six AI-proof leadership competencies. Each participant receives a verified Sostibl Convergence Score™ at completion.
Delivered virtually · Optional in-person workshops at additional cost · Cohort-based

These are not charity outcomes. They are the conditions under which exceptional leadership is forged — and the basis of the Sostibl Catalyst Index™ measurement framework.
How It Works
Three streams. One integrated score.
Stream 1
Youth Innovator Capabilities
Assessment of the community challenge outcomes produced by youth participants — the real-world test environment your executives are leading within.
Stream 2
Executive Leadership Development
Structured assessment of the six AI-proof leadership competencies demonstrated by your executives across all three program phases.
Stream 3
Convergence
The degree to which executive leadership and community impact reinforce each other — the defining measure of the Sostibl approach.
Each stream assessed independently by industry experts from Sostibl and FCRS facilitators. The result is a single Sostibl Convergence Score™ you can report to your board.

Our Foundation
Sustainability is at the core of everything we do.
Sostibl’s approach is grounded in the three pillars of sustainable development: environmental, social, and economic. Sustainability is not a program add-on or a reporting requirement — it is the operating system. Built into how the program is designed, how outcomes are measured, and how we work with every partner.
