Our School's Educational Role and Leadership Development Programmes
Meeting the leadership needs in organisations or society in general Each of our institution's leadership development programmes and curricula meets the critical requirement that leaders need to have and demonstrate the expected skills and competencies for initiating and leading, or mastering, positive change processes. Leadership is a distinctive field of study and practice. Not often is leading a straightforward process; sometimes it is very confusing. Also, it encompasses many fields. To name a few: human behaviour; climate change; management; global business; strategy; evolving social systems; and ethics and responsibilities. Self-mastery is equally important; in their careers all leaders face ambiguity, conflict, decision gridlock, stress, and crisis situations -- and perhaps more often than generally believed. Intercontinental
and interdisciplinary inspiration and resources Extensive
research has preceded the launch of our curricula, and
continuous improvement pervades. Our programmes are
pioneers in their field, truly unique in Europe and in the world.
There may seem to be a similarity between our curricula and the effect
generated by
the "global" Leading-edge programmes, as a complement to foundational studies The Individual Objectives In line with our mission,
educational role for individuals, organisations, and for society in general,
student-centredness is a top priority we continuously focus
upon. This aim is further highlighted in the
next
section, about the Individual
Objectives of each
programme-participant.
