Course Content
The course investigates leadership as part of a larger ecosystem. It aims to show the interconnectedness within the system and to explore ways to mobilize the adaptive capasity of an organization/entity to thrive and adopt to changing environments and to effectively respond to recurring and/or novel problems in a more halistic way. This approach helps organizations deal with VUCA-volatility, unknown, complexity and ambiguity-by concentrating on possibilities rather than certainties. This course draws upon systems thinking, theory-u and adaptive leadership and discusses how to put these in use in organizations.
