Embark on a six-month journey where full cultural immersion is the key to nurturing high-performing leaders. Immersive TIE offers an intense 30-day immersion experience in a Global South nation, crafted to foster cultural intelligence, self-awareness, and fresh perspectives.
Participants are catapulted into unfamiliar territories, working in diverse teams and languages, often with a limited budget, to address and resolve a real-world challenge. This is a potent demonstration of the power of constraints.

I am looking for programmes that will motivate and inspire talent whilst making our people better and stronger. TIE allows people to step out of the circuit, find their own route, and they don’t have to deal with the hierarchy. Nothing about TIE is theoretical. It’s real. What TIE does has real implication and real value. In the real world. This is not a drill.

I learned more leadership skills on my time on TIE than all of my time at work.

TIE has given me an opportunity to dream bigger, think bigger and act bigger – all with the intention of creating a much bigger version of my life! I came into the process completely naïve and have left feeling culturally diverse and ready to tackle more challenges.

TIE has contributed massively to the capacity building and development of Barefeet especially on different strategies. This has helped the organisation as well as individuals involved to grow and compete on the same level as profit making organisations this in turn helps the organisation stay relevant to the communities.
