For seasoned executives, academics, and professionals

The Living Lab is a unique programme on inter-generational organisational work-life. It provides an opportunity to study and experiment with new approaches - on work, task and delivery. And to co-design with the next generation a joint understanding of a work-ethic that both delivers and develops.

The first part of the programme is five days and held in the Netherlands. It consists of a real-life laboratory of group and organisational processes and a de-briefing on the real-life interactions that happened to you in the laboratory. Parts of the programme will be joint with the future leaders, others will be focused purely on the learning relevant for you.

Module One is followed six weeks later by a two-and-a-half-day personal and professional consultation on organisational development, system dynamics and change leadership.

Working on the life of an organisation

Leaders work both in- and out-, up- and downwards. The Living Lab gives you a fresh view of how organisational life operates, flourishes and meets potential. You have the opportunity to explore your own leadership in the moment, away from your work setting, so you are able to reflect on what you do that helps and that what hinders.

Creating a culture that delivers and endures

Senior leaders need to deliver on the business and professional promise of today whilst developing the culture for tomorrow. Developing the talents of future leaders involves passing on the discipline and wisdom required for organisational life. At the same time, senior leaders require flexibility, creativity and resilience - across the organisation - in the face of complex situations. The sub-text is how to understand and employ the insights, technology, energy and attitudes in partnership with newer recruits whilst inducting them into the politics and practice of organisational life.
