Alumni Book Club
The Great Ideas Alumni Book Club
A community of lifelong learners who believe great people are shaped by great ideas.
Why This Club?
When was the last time you read something that challenged your thinking?
Not a social media post or a quote, but a book, a speech or a letter?
Somewhere between graduation and the demands of everyday life, many of us stopped making time for deep reading and meaningful conversation. We consume more information than ever before, yet rarely pause to wrestle with the ideas that shape our leadership, our decisions, and our world.
Now, imagine reclaiming that space.
Welcome
A group that explores the timeless ideas that have shaped civilizations.
We come together to explore ideas that have challenged assumptions and inspired extraordinary leaders across history.
Guided by award-winning book club facilitator, educator, and Great Books scholar Lucy Mulli, each reading journey is curated to broaden your perspective, sharpen your thinking, and drive conversations that continue long after the discussion ends.
We Ask Questions Like
The Journey Doesn't End Here

How It Works
How the Programme Works
Read
Participants meet every other month reading the selected texts. Prior to each discussion they receive reflection questions and discussion prompts.
Discuss
Members gather for a guided discussion centred on dialogue, not lectures. We dive into the ideas within the text and consider different perspectives.
Reflect
We reflect on their relevance to modern life. The goal isn't to find the "right" answers, but to ask better questions.
