Webinar

Leadership in the public sector

Initiating and mastering change processes

This webinar is held in German.
The dynamics of change in the public sector differ significantly from those in commercial enterprises. They are subject to their own laws, the observance of which is important for sustainable implementation success. The triggers for change are just as different as the openness to change or questions of involvement and coordination with decision-makers. Managers often encounter clear tendencies of inertia, reservations and skepticism among their employees about introducing something new too quickly. In the public sector, the initiation and implementation of new structures, processes or working methods is therefore a matter of very specific timing. It's about the right timing, communication with a sense of proportion and a balance between appreciating the old and inviting the new. In the training , we address the challenges of leadership in change in the public sector and what needs to be specifically taken into account, as well as specific practical questions from the participants from their individual work context.
