Shared Leadership for Complex Changes Master Class

Just about every organization grapples with complex issues, shifting headwinds and constant change. These challenges call for more than just decisiveness, streamlined processes and a clear policy. They call for shared leadership. Dialog is key to creating shared leadership. You have to let the people in your organization address the issues of the day, through flexible and versatile action. This master class teaches you how to strengthen this dialog. So the organization, and you as a leader, can take effective, ethical and authentic action.

Dialogical Leadership for flexible and versatile action

Your work involves volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous issues (VUCA issues) – whether they concern clients, innovation or organizational development. In this complexity, the key is to ensure that the organization’s mission (‘the forest’) shines through in its day-to-day practice (‘the trees’). Dialog helps you tackle these issues, for example by shaping shared leadership. This distributes ownership more broadly. The Shared Leadership for Complex Changes Master Class offers a convenient theoretical framework, tools and forms of dialog.
