Invest in the social changemakers of tomorrow
Learning to change the world
“By investing in people, as well as projects, we have the power to unlock long-term change.”
- Roland Brinkman, Head of Dragonfly Trust
Dragonfly Trust’s mission is to spread transformational leadership and, in doing so, address some of the world’s most complex societal problems.
How? We connect corporates and foundations to work together on a shared purpose, and their collaboration can realise exponential outcomes for both.
By focusing on the people, the impact goes beyond the lifespan of a single project.
This innovative model delivers world class leadership to the social economy, creating a strong business case and a better world in the process.
We think it’s a winning combination.

For corporates:
You have a social purpose strategy that matters to you. It is part of your brand and supports the themes that are shaping your business. In today’s environment, a clear social purpose is an important part of attracting and retaining staff. With our team’s knowledge and experience, we can help you get the most out if your budget. Research shows companies with strong social objectives achieve better business outcomes than their peers. A strong business case and a better world - it’s a winning combination.
For foundations:
You are the expert in running your projects - we leave it to you. Dragonfly Trust adds something different. We offer leadership development to the beneficiaries of your projects. This amplifies the projects’ success and provides inspirational outcomes that underscore the importance of the funding choices you make. By focusing on the people, we can help you deliver sustainable impact for the longer term - and make your funding allocations go further.
How we create value
Dragonfly Trust combines investment, learning and delivery. In doing so, we achieve outcomes no single organisation could achieve alone.

“I used to think leadership was about being the loudest or smartest. Now I know it’s about having the courage to care when no one else does. I do that every day..”
