Experienced leaders

Develop a personal leadership that thrives in an increasingly complex world

“I will use the word magical, because this has been a magical experience to me. I feel like I have left an entirely different space than the one I entered earlier”

- Peter Bastrup, CEO, Greenland Travel

Target group

We invite a group of experienced leaders into an exclusive, and intensive transformation programme. Within, we create a space of trust which enables you and other participants to open up about fundamental dilemmas in your own leadership. Through 'learning by doing', we help expand the participants' awareness of their own leadership practices and repertoire of transformative approaches.

Throughout the course, you and the other participants will work with action learning in everyday life, which ensures integration into your real-life challenges by continuously asking:

This programme is practice-driven, rather than theory-driven. By "living" through, and working with real-life management dilemmas, the manager solves new development steps in practice.

“Which managerial challenge requires an immediate development of yourself and your leadership to overcome it, here and now?”

Format of the programme

All modules include targeted, professional presentations from our consultants. The main emphasis is on practical training and the development of experience-based understanding, where you integrate your learning through lived experiences. Training specifically, takes place through you working with your own dilemmas, role-playing and direct supervision of your teams’ 'live' development.

We also use the dynamics that arise between the participants in the training teams as a laboratory to develop our own understanding of action options.

The modules will also provide opportunities for sparring and reflection on your own action-learning in everyday life, just as there will be an opportunity to reach an increased degree of self-insight by working with your own relational patterns and themes.

There will be a maximum number of participants of 16 people to ensure intimacy, intensity, and sufficient time to focus on each individual.

The programme extends over a period of 8 months and consists of 5 modules

  • Participation in the five modules, including a field study to Amsterdam.

  • A preparatory meeting with a focus on your learning goals

  • Growth-edge interview & assessment

  • 1:1 coaching sessions and buddy group supervision after modules 1, 2, 4 and 5

  • Web-based teaching material in common theory and models interspersed between the five modules

  • Accommodation and meals during the modules

  • Ongoing action - a learning project on own practice in everyday life

  • Acquisition of the latest professional knowledge via selected literature, video etc.

  • A final assignment documenting your own learning/development

Programme structure

Every participant's process is supported by a combination of five modules, preparatory e-learning (virtual sessions and content), ongoing participation in sparring groups, 1:1 conversations with our dedicated coaches, as well as learning and feedback that integrates perspectives from sponsors, colleagues and fellow participants. This documents and anchors your learning.

The modules carry the following titles:

  1. Meaning and authenticity in leadership

  2. Personal transformation

  3. Developing group dynamics

  4. The organisations of the future (Study trip)

  5. Integration and sustainable leadership

What is in it for you as a leader?

You will experience a deep-rooted personal transformation and development in your leadership, as you work through and solve the real leadership challenges that you currently are facing.

You will strengthen:

  • Your self-insight, your self-esteem and your connection to the meaningfulness of your role as a leader

  • Your ability to create trust-based engagement as well as developmental relationships and teams

  • Your courage to be authentic and clear, and to transform yourself, your team and your organization

  • Your understanding of the management paradigms of the future, and your way of getting there

  • Your ability to create meaning and navigate in complex contexts, by confronting and manoeuvering through real "here and now" situations

What is in it for your organisation?

Your organisation will experience a significant contribution to its leadership culture, moving it towards a more authentic, trust-inspiring and engaging practice. Participants will inspire a clear "to the point" approach, which will create development in both individuals, relationship dynamics and result creation.

Your organisation will experience:

  • A greater ownership of, and deeper commitment to, the company's development – both in terms of strategy, operational and human resources.

  • An increased pace in decision-making processes and adaptability.

  • Increased cohesion and developmental dynamics across the organisation, as well as between management layers.

  • Increased well-being and motivation of employees.

  • Greater resilience and ability to create calm and reorientation, in a world characterised by complexity and volatility.

  • An expansion of your organisation’s repertoire of "next generation" leadership approaches and organisational models, fostered by practical experience.

The five modules - Programme content

  1. Meaning and authenticity in your leadership: You will strengthen your practical knowledge of self-esteem vs. self-confidence. You will also work with dilemmas regarding integrity vs. collaboration, developmental relations and teams, individual purpose, personal narratives as well as mindfulness and action-learning.

2. Personal transformation: Here we introduce a new way of viewing yourself and your relation to the world – and thus new ways of finding meaning and direction. The insight into these stages will give you new perspectives on how to best adapt your leadership to the different world-views that you encounter in others.

3. Developmental group dynamics:  You gain insight into your own tendencies and patterns, as well as your ability to take natural leadership in self-organised groups. In addition to this, you will strengthen your ability to support other groups in their development.

4. Organisations of the future - Study trip to the Netherlands: This module is a study trip to some of the most progressive and successful companies in the Netherlands, each of which represents a suggestion for the organisations of the future.

5. Integration and sustainable leadership: Module 5 is about integrating your learning and the level of functional ability that you are now capable of, as well as getting ready for your further development after the course.
