Systems Leadership: Transforming Organizations, Government and Public Service in a Complex World:



Course Overview:

Be it in organizations, government and public services, leadership more than ever has become more dynamic, complex and systemic. Today, becoming a successful leader is getting tougher and tougher – it requires leaders who understand systems thinking - who can lead from a systems perspective, and who can exemplify collective leadership. Importantly, it requires leaders who understand the risks of unintended consequences that arise when decisions and solutions are pursued without thinking about the wider systemic implications – and this is why this systems leadership training is a must attend for any leader that really wants to succeed in today's complex times. Don't just strive to be a leader, be a systems leader
