Improve self-organization

High-performing teams help organizations succeed.
If you can analyze group processes and use their power productively, you will acquire the prerequisites for designing, leading and changing modern organizations. The success of dynamic and agile organizations depends largely on functioning team, work and project groups.

The crucial leadership level is the interpersonal level.
Goal: Learn to read groups.
What role do I take when conflicts arise? How do I behave in power structures? How do I lead a group to better self-organization? At the end of the seminar, you will be able to reflect on your own thought structures and perception filters and thus improve your leadership and assertiveness style.

The seminar
In two three-day sessions, you will learn the basics of systemic leadership. We will teach you tools for leadership in complex situations, which you will practice in small groups using role-playing based on real-life applications. It is important to us that all participants can try things out freely in order to achieve the greatest possible learning success. When putting together the groups, we make sure, wherever possible, that there is no connection between the participants that would limit them in the role-play.

Learn to read groups.
In 5 days, we will teach you the tools and practice you need to understand group dynamics and manage teams effectively. In small groups, we will work through real situations in which you can practice what you have learned and experience the effectiveness of the methods for yourself. When putting together the groups, we make sure that there is as little connection between the participants as possible. This way, everyone can try things out freely and achieve the greatest possible learning success.
