The 2017/8 Transformative Leadership Programme is now open for applications.
Aimed at the senior management-level paid staff of Irish nonprofits, the programme revolves around four core modules:
- Personal Leadership Model Building: enhancing effective leadership through a combination of personal and shared reflection, as well as practical skills development
- Understanding and Leading Change: understanding the complexities of advocating and leading change
- Systems Change – Working Creatively with Diversity: a model for understanding organisational culture and how it relates to leadership
- Building Strategic Alliance: skills development in collaborative working, policy and power mapping, as well developing a personal leadership plan and network.
The feedback received has been extremely positive. Consider, for example, the two following testimonials:
"I am more reflective in dealing with difficult situations and am more aware of the skills of advocacy and enquiry which I try to implement on a daily basis." - Gemma O'Brien, Kerry Diocesan Youth Service
"This course has given me the opportunity to look at my role as a leader - it has helped me identify my strengths and weaknesses.” - Mary Maher, Dublin Adult Learning Centre
Commencing in November 2017, the cost for this programme is €1,100 for Members of The Wheel (non-members pay €1,300).
