Leadership

Leading Public Sector Transformation

Develop the Practical Power, Strong Interpersonal Skills, and Clear Organization You Need to Lead Change

Overview

This fast-paced seminar will engage you at the most intense level of learning and action. You will leave with a personal roadmap to successfully transform your organization, and a working mastery of the concepts, tools, and practices necessary to initiate, manage, and lead that change. No other transformation program provides you with a network of fellow executives from across the public sector who will share your challenges and triumphs.

  • Securing your network
  • Approaching the future openly and creatively
