We're honoured to welcome Dr Maina Wã Gioko to the Metis Board!! 🎉

From being a Cohort One Fellow to pioneering work integrating digital technology into education and advancing teacher development, Dr. Maina has long been part of Metis' journey in reimagining education. And now, that journey continues as he joins our board.

And in his own words;

"Metis is more than an organisation to me—it is an idea that transformed the way I think about leadership, learning, and reimagining education. I look forward to contributing to this shared vision and to helping create opportunities for many more people to experience that same transformation."

Welcome, Gîokõ Gathinjaga Maina , we're looking forward to seeing great things unfold.

This month’s session is Team Engagement Strategies: Proven Tools and Techniques to Energize and Inspire Your Group, hosted by Lee-Anne Ragan.

What if philanthropy's missing tool is radical candor?
A lot of time in this sector is spent building strategy documents, theory of change frameworks, and log frames, without asking the harder question underneath: what do we really nred?

Earlier last month, Our Executive Director, Muthoni Gakwa, co-facilitated a session on why nice is costing us impact, speaking on radical candor at The Next Beat, Segal Family Foundation's 2026 gathering.

She unpacked it further in a full reflection piece.
