In this episode, Damali discusses conflict and peacebuilding with Shamil Idriss. Shamil Idriss is the CEO of Search for Common Ground, leading around 900 staff in 31 countries to end violent conflict. As CEO of Soliya from 2008 to 2014, Idriss oversaw a public-private coalition to establish the field of virtual exchange, pioneering interactive media as a tool for cross-cultural trust. In 2005, Idriss was appointed by UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan as Deputy Director of the UN Alliance of Civilizations, seeking to improve relations between Western and Muslim-majority countries. Previously, Idriss had helped establish and served on the Steering Committee of the World Economic Forum's Council of 100 Leaders. Shamil shares that his resilience comes from connecting with others and leaning on friends and family support.

We live in a polarized country, and a conflict-filled world. But today on the show, Kathy welcomes a life-long friend who brings a world view to living more harmoniously together, no matter our differences.  Sahmil Idriss is the CEO of Search For Common Ground. Their organization works to move populations from an adversarial approach to cooperating solutions and community building. This happens on an even smaller scale when we strive to listen and better understand those with different views than us.  Plus! Hear a beautiful conversation from an 8-year-old about being a champion for those that are different from us. 

How many technologists have traveled to Niger, or the Balkans, or Rwanda, to learn the lessons of peacebuilding? Technology and social media are creating patterns and pathways of conflict that few people anticipated or even imagined just a decade ago. And we need to act quickly to contain the effects, but we don't have to reinvent the wheel. There are people, such as this episode’s guest, Shamil Idriss, CEO of the organization Search for Common Ground, who have been training for years to understand human beings and learn how to help them connect and begin healing processes. These experts can share their insights and help us figure out how to apply them to our new digital habitats. “Peace moves at the speed of trust, and trust can’t be fast-tracked,” says Shamil. Real change is possible, but as he explains, it takes patience, care, and creativity to get there.

It is amazing to be into our second year, and have guests from our first year return. When these leaders first sat down in the Lessons from Leaders chair in 2019, Covid-19 was unknown, racial injustice was very much real but without the global lens it deserved, and has now, and leaders were unaware of an incoming pandemic. This week, I sit back down with Shamil Idriss, CEO of Search for Common Ground. When I reflect on our previous episode with Shamil, our conversation surrounded scaling your business, team building, and how to ‘show up’ for your organization. While all of those topics still hold value, our conversation this time looks far different. “This has been, for us, and for billions of people… a particularly difficult year but thankfully our employees have been healthy and we have made it through organizationally. We have had many people step up to help.” In this episode, we walk through the deep impact of organizational culture,  employee engagement, and signs to look for in team communication, even in a virtual workspace. Shamil, thank you for coming back and joining us. I am curious and hopeful to our conversation a year from now. Show Notes:0:00 - 3:00 | Introduction, Check In 3:00 - 12:00 | Organizational Culture 12:00 - 15:00 | Team Engagement & Communication15:00 - 18:00 | Signs of Integration 18:00 - 19:00 | Presentation vs Engagement 19:00 - 27:00 | Challenges as a Leader Right Now 27:00 - 28:00 | Closing Episode

Imagine being president and CEO of a successful, scaling company and asking those who work for you for their feedback on how you lead, how you support and how you show up. What difference would that make in how you lead and your ability to scale your organization?Shamil Idriss, CEO of Search for Common Ground, does just that and shares with us what he's learned."I think that people should feel as though they are accountable to one another. Specifically others living by their same values. This includes anyone in an organization, CEO, president, VP, anyone. Become reliable on feedback from those around you."Humility is one word I would use to describe the leaders I am able to interview. Humbled by their journeys, their successes and their failures. As we enter this new year, let me challenge you to ask for feedback on what you could do differently to be a more effective leader in 2020. As always, your comments and thoughts and wishes for Lessons From Leaders in 2020 are welcomed!

January 10, 2007 In response to ongoing tensions between Islam and the West, then-UN Secretary General Kofi Annan constituted a High-level Group to promote the idea of an Alliance of Civilizations. Composed of twenty prominent leaders drawn from politics, academia, civil society, business, and media around the world, the High-level Group published a report in November 2006 refuting the Clash of Civilizations thesis and offering concrete recommendations for improving relations across cultural and religious divides. John Esposito, founding director of the Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding, is a member of the Group. He was joined on the panel by Shamil Idriss, acting director within the Alliance Secretariat, and Katherine Marshall, senior fellow in the Berkley Center and director of the World Faiths Development Dialogue.
