Personal Leadership Skills

Dealing effectively with vision, power and influence

The central object of this course is Leadership. The topic is extremely relevant these days, the interest in leadership is overwhelming, reflected in the many ‘hits’ when you google the topic, as well as in the increased interest for adequate leadership skills. Leadership is not a theoretical concept; in the end it is about who you are and what you do. In the context of an organization this implies to be able to deal effectively with vision, strategy, power and influence.

Since the art of leadership is only truly mastered by hands-on experience and practice, you are also invited to practice and reflect on a number of skills.

“The course was meticulously designed, blending theoretical frameworks with practical exercises. Each day focused on different aspects of personal leadership, encouraging us to explore how our own values, behaviors, and decisions shape our leadership style.”
Ms. Janine Hanger. (South Africa), participant of the September 2024 programme

"The Personal Leadership Skills programme has completely exceeded my expectations. I am very grateful to have had the chance to participate. The programme provided me with the right toolbox to use in my professional and private life.”

Developing your personal leadership style and values will be a central theme throughout the programme. Leadership is a very broad topic. This course tackles only part of the subject of leadership and will be a combination of theoretical concepts and practical exercises.
