Details
You may be aware that the Centre for Advancement of Women in Politics within the school of Politics, International Studies & Philosophy at Queen’s University, Belfast runs a leadership training programme for women entitled the ‘Next Generation’.
This four day intensive course (non-residential), based at Queen’s University, includes workshops and seminars on topics such as conflict management, communication skills, leadership skills, team management and work/life balance. It is a programme that is designed to benefit both the participants and their sponsoring organisations, by giving participants key skills as well as a more focused sense of their personal leadership capacities, a clearer strategy for the future, and an appreciation of the personal challenges and rewards inherent in becoming a leader. It is a course, which may also help to contribute to gender equality strategies within the workplace.
The Next Generation Leadership programme is open to women who are identified by their sponsoring organisation as leaders of the future, and who are committed to making a difference. The programme is designed to operate within a broad understanding of decision-making and thus welcomes women keen to participate and advance in all aspects of economic, social, political and public life.
The programme will run from 20-24 September 2010 and places are limited to 20 per programme. Full information is attached along with the draft programme and an application form.
