Aims

This session aims to help you find practical ways to navigate through complexity and uncertainty – Systems Leadership is designed to help you lead when you’re not in charge, or you when don’t have positional power, levers to pull, or a large budget to wield. It can help you get your messages across and influence other people, especially when you’re working in hierarchies or strongly political environments, trying to bring traditional silos together, or working across sectors.

It aims to equip you with new ways of looking at what you’re facing now or will be likely to face; to give you tools and techniques for working in complex, messy environments that you can use straight away; and to provide a space for you to have honest conversations and think about the future.

This will be a practical and interactive session, with plenty of time for questions and small-group discussion in more detail.

In preparation for the session there will be some pre-reading to undertake. You can find this under 'Documents'.
