Leadership is one of the oldest social constructions in the World, and since language was born among human beings probably also basis for a lot of discussion. Demands from authorities that public sector leaders qualify their practice through education and exams in combination with their leadership practice call for new ways of providing leadership education and new ways of thinking leadership construction.

In this workshop we are proud to introduce a way of adding positive synergy to leadership practice. We present a systemic approach to leadership training performed in an educational joint venture between public sector trainers and private sector trainers. Leadership construction is observed from a public sector position as well as from a private sector position.

The systemic based leadership education has from an organizational position a positive effect for large politically administered organisations by co-ordinating meaning and strategic dialogue. To generate and enhance organizational coherence might be the biggest challenge for large organisations as well as for companies providing systemic education. The training programme is concluded by exams and options to choose between further educational paths.
