Leadership for Public and Non-Profit Sector Master Class

This master class starts from the basic idea that the world in which leaders at public and non-profit organizations work is – by definition – extremely complex. We show you exactly what makes this world so complex, so you gain an understanding of the complexity. Using a variety of leadership strategies, you learn how to deal with this complexity. Next, we look at how complexity is expressed in individual managers. And we examine leadership with respect to others. The program is highly practical and active. You dive right into academic exercises where you share your experiences with others.

Day 1

Day 1 focuses on the role of leadership in times of uncertainty, complexity, and labor market shortages. Leadership is explored as a lever for resilience, development, and sustainable retention of professionals.

Day 2

The key questions today are which roles you can have as a person, and how they can enter into dialog with one another, to make the complexity manageable.

Day 3

On day 3, we focus on leaders in relation to others. This process also draws on what you learned in the first two days of the master class.

Time investment and result

The Leadership for Public and Non-Profit Sector Master Class takes place over 3 consecutive days. The program is designed to limit the amount of preparation time. Participants should plan for a total of 5 hours of preparation time.

A Word from our Academic Director

“This master class is based around the complexity in the work of leaders in the non-profit and public sectors. Social issues related to healthcare, education or sustainability cannot be addressed in isolation. It takes different people, with different expertises in different organizations. Leadership in this environment is an art. This master class brings together the experiences of participants, so our renowned lecturers can help them take their leadership to the next level.” Dr. Eelco van Hout
