MATCH Foundation Malawi’s Executive Director, Tadala Kandulu Ngosi, graduated as a Collaborative Learning Initiative (CLI) Leader on 27 October 2026, marking an important milestone in her leadership development journey and the organization’s commitment to creating lasting change.
The 10 month-long leadership program under the Issroff Family Foundation provided an opportunity to strengthen capacity, exchange knowledge, build meaningful connections, and reflect on how effective leadership can drive organizational growth and community transformation.
For MATCH Foundation, the milestone represents more than an individual achievement. It reflects an investment in the leadership needed to strengthen programs, expand opportunities for children and young people, and deliver sustainable impact in the communities the organization serves.
Reflecting on the experience, Tadala highlighted its contribution to shaping the organization’s future direction.
“Beyond the learning, the 10-month experience with CLI has strengthened my vision for MATCH Foundation, contributing to the development of a three-year strategic plan that will guide our priorities, shape our growth, and help us measure our impact,” she said.
As she concludes this chapter of her leadership journey, Tadala moves forward with renewed clarity, stronger professional connections, and a deeper commitment to purposeful leadership. Her experience reinforces MATCH Foundation’s belief that investing in leadership and organizational development is essential to building resilient programs and sustaining impact over time.
For MATCH Foundation and its partners, the journey ahead presents an opportunity to translate this strengthened vision into action, creating more opportunities for young people, supporting communities to thrive, and ensuring that today’s investments contribute to a brighter future for generations to come.
