Norwegian Church Aid with an executive leadership program
For the first time in Norwegian Church Aid’s history we have created a global programme that focuses of developing leaders of different levels across the organisation. Together we will work on leadership skills in line with future needs and the goals of NCA.
Leaders are the most important person in the organisation for their staff. Leaders can make a huge difference on staff’s performance. They can make a big difference in how the rightsholders perceive our help.
Developing talent
To be a good leader your values, attitude, ability and willingness to learn is important.
When I say, “the right attitude”, I think about having a growth mindset.
If you have a growth mindset you believe that your talent can be developed through hard work, good strategies, and input from others.
I hope experienced leader want to share their experience with others.
In 2019 we introduced a new version of the Global Leadership Platform. This framework is important to us. I am now happy to invite leaders with staff responsibility, to attend the NCA Executive Leadership Programme.
Our goal for the Leadership programme is to enable leaders to perform at their very best, to reach our organisational goals.
This programme seeks to increase leader’s perception of purpose, self efficacy and their understanding of the leadership role.
Combining theory and practice, the programme aims to equip participants with leadership skills for the complex context they are working in.
They will explore their strengths and weaknesses as a leader, and how to lead in times of change and disruption.
Sharing expertise
The Norwegian Church Aid Executive Leadership program integrates webinars, video-lectures, workshops, colleague-groups, mentor-conversations and on-the-job-training. We will focus on collaborative learning through discussions and sharing experiences.
During this 8-months program they will meet a number of professionals both from NCA and external guests. They will share their expertise, insights and opinions through webinars and video lectures.
To get a perfect learning experience for all participants we have established co-operations with VID Specialized University, Master Management Norway and Lockstep. I hope our leaders will enjoy this program made specially for them!
