Inner Development Goals: Stories of Collective Leadership in Action

Eleftheria Egel is the co-editor of the two-volume collection Inner Development Goals
Stories of Collective Leadership in Action (DeGruyter 2025):

Real change extends beyond individuals—it requires a shift in how we lead, collaborate, and shape systems. The second of this two-volume work delves into the power of collective leadership to drive systemic transformation. Featuring diverse contributions from the global IDG movement, it offers insights, tools, and stories that inspire action toward sustainability. Together, we can move beyond isolated efforts to co-create a future where inner development fuels lasting societal change.

The first volume From “I” to “We” complements the themes and issues raised here in a creative and explorative format.
  •  Includes works on each dimension and skills it encompasses
  •  Explores many diverse tools and methods co-created by an intentional and purposeful global community
  • Encompasses contributions of different genres and styles

At a time when the world demands profound change, transformation begins within. As part of a two-volume work, this first volume explores the personal journeys that fuel collective leadership, weaving together research, art, case studies, and practices from the global Inner Development Goals (IDG) community. Through deep reflection and shared wisdom, it invites readers to embrace a new paradigm of interconnectedness—where individual insight, systemic understanding, and empathy drive meaningful action.

The second volume From “We” to “Systems Change” builds on this foundation to explore transformation beyond the individual.
