The Fellowship encourages and supports leaders to push for change and tackle exclusion

Four Scots will become social leaders in the cultural and creative sector after being named as 2017 fellows by the Clore Social Leadership programme.

Joanna McCreadie, chief executive of Seamab, Samina Ansari, chief executive of the Muslim Women's Resource Centre, Kathryn Welch, development manager at the Macrobert Arts Centre and Melodie Crumlin, chief executive of Possibilities for Each and Every Kid, are among 24 fellows announced this week.

The fellowship encourages and supports leaders to push for change, tackle exclusion and advocate through training and support from the Clore programme.

Clore announced the 2017 list as it unveiled its new Social Leaders’ Capabilities Framework.

“Today’s social leaders are required to work in an increasingly complex environment”, said Shaks Ghosh, Clore chief executive.

“This framework was developed incorporating current issues and foresight trends, and our 2017 fellows will be immersed in it to ensure they understand what is required of them to help alleviate future needs and challenges.”

Ghosh added: “Social issues are not just relevant to our sector. We know people care and want change – that is why we are sharing this framework widely. Everybody should be given the opportunity to become better leaders, and this framework will continue to evolve as the world does.”
