Mokuteki 目的 Coaching Program

For coaches working with Ukrainian civil society

What’s in it for you?

Why we created Mokuteki?

Because leadership can be lonely. Because the work is hard and the world is complex. And because we believe that clarity, care, and curiosity are not luxuries — they’re necessities.

By joining this program, you become part of an international community of people who care deeply — about others, about social change, and about showing up in a grounded, sustainable way.

If you can’t join this edition but want to stay in the loop — let us know!
We’ll happily send you updates and an invite for the next cohort planned for 2026.

Do you know someone who might benefit from this?
Share the program with them. Your one message might change someone’s year.
