Strategic leaders are not passive recipients of changes in the environment and organisations, but rather can be dominant forces in affecting change. Strategic leadership involves interpreting the environment, crafting strategies, and building an organisation that thrives in dynamic environments. Building an organisation involves all means (e.g., structures, institutions, culture) to exploit and maintain an organisation\u2019s competitive advantages and to assure balanced organisational controls in the service of the organisation\u2019s vision and mission. Moreover, to leverage resources in, strategic leaders need to go beyond organisational and service boundaries and seek partnerships with other civil society actors of which collective efforts and voices will bring synergy, build community and social capital and benefit public governance.<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"clear\" style=\"height:16px\"><\/div><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft
