There are no simple answers to these questions. But one thing is sure: in times of current crisis, right leaders are needed more than ever. In this course, we will guide you to get closer to answering them by assisting you to build self-awareness, communication, and team management skillset. All this for an ultimate goal to make you a proactive and effective leader of your personal life and your current or future teams.
You will meet your instructor and establish a comfortable group. You will reflect on own strengths, weaknesses, values and awareness of life goals.
In this session, you will learn how to improve your communication by applying feedback strategies such as the BIO method to give and receive feedback.
One of the best ways to deal with difficult interpersonal situations is to apply the theory of assertive communication.
Negotiation is all about preparation. You will learn how to reach adequate outcomes (win-win approach) and how to prepare a persuasive speech for an idea or product.
A leader is nothing without a team. In this session, you will learn about the different types of team players and how to manage, delegate, bond and stay effective.
Challenging and unpredictable situations need proactive and solution-oriented leaders. Your last challenge: self-reflection and a setting up a concrete action plan.
WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?
Sessions will be led by a team of experienced trainers. On each session, you can expect at least two of them facilitating the exercises, discussions, and sharing their experiences.
Niek has a passion for self-development and public speaking. In 2019, he set up the EL Association to bring a new message to university students. This message is radically honest, entails stepping outside the comfort zone and creates a sense of belonging. After an amazing board year with the team, he’s stepping out the comfort zone on his exchange in Switzerland. Here he continues another board year at ACIT. Niek is characterised by going against the grain, care for improvement and discipline. Niek is back this year to lead our online Leadership Academy.
Sofie is a bachelor in International Business. Her experience with public speaking and leadership started with AIESEC Netherlands where she went from facilitator to Local Committee President. She went to the international Train the Trainers were she learnt how to train and educate others as well as giving engaging presentations. Sophie has experience training people in different student associations, universities and companies. She's back with us this year after two successful rounds teaching the course.
Albandari is currently pursuing a bachelor in international psychology, her experience with leadership started when she joined the student association Extraordinary Life and found her way from an active member to a board member who hosts interactive bookclub sessions. Albandari's biggest passion is self discovery/awareness, she hopes by investing more into self awareness she can also help others get closer to understanding themselves.
"During autumn 2019 I attended the 8-week Leadership Academy. The course content, very interesting and comprehensive, coupled with its structure, oriented towards group interaction, resulted in a great learning experience. I would totally recommend the leadership academy because it gave me the opportunity to learn useful theories and concepts in a fun and practical way."
