SUMMARY:ISS Leadership Programme
DESCRIPTION:Lead with impact in a changing global landscape\nGlobal challenges are becoming more complex\, while funding and support for international cooperation are increasingly under pressure. This raises urgent questions for organizations working in development: how do you prepare for an uncertain future\, and how can you effectively integrate the latest social science insights into your policies and programmes? \nThis executive leadership programme is designed to help you navigate that complexity and strengthen your organisation’s impact in a rapidly changing world. \nAbout the programme\nThe programme starts on Tuesday\, 1 September 2026 at 15:00 and runs until the final session on 15 December 2026. It consists of eight sessions delivered in a hybrid format\, allowing participants to combine in-person and online learning. \nThe ISS Leadership Programme includes four face-to-face workshops in The Hague\, each lasting 2.5 hours\, alongside four online sessions of 1.5 hours. While in-person participation is encouraged\, all sessions can also be attended digitally\, making full remote participation possible. \nWith a group size of 15 to 20 participants\, the programme offers an interactive and focused learning environment for senior professionals from across the international development sector. \nDeveloped as part of the ISS Leadership Programme and in close collaboration with the Hague Humanitarian Studies Centre\, the course connects key themes such as resilience\, risk\, vulnerability\, and sustainable development. Participants are encouraged to translate insights directly into action within their own organisations. \nWho should attend\nThis course is aimed at experienced professionals with at least ten years of experience in international development. It is particularly relevant for managers\, leaders\, strategists\, monitoring and evaluation specialists\, and business developers. \nParticipants typically come from donor agencies\, international NGOs\, think tanks\, philanthropic foundations\, development consultancies\, and international development banks. The programme is also well suited for directors\, board members\, and management teams looking to strengthen their strategic leadership. \nWhat you will gain\nThroughout the programme\, you will develop the knowledge\, skills\, and mindset needed to increase your organization’s impact. You will learn how to move beyond linear approaches and adopt more adaptive forms of programming\, drawing on complexity thinking to better address real-world challenges. You will gain insights into how development efforts can be strengthened by anticipating future risks and enhancing societal resilience\, while also learning from best practices across organizations. \nIn addition\, the programme focuses on practical skill-building. You will learn how to identify blind spots within your organization\, engage constructively with donors and investors\, and create safe and inclusive work environments where innovation is encouraged. \nOn a personal level\, the programme supports your development as a leader. It helps you build the confidence and creativity needed to challenge existing structures and to foster a more open and learning-oriented organizational culture. \nLearning experience\nThe learning experience is highly interactive and designed to encourage exchange between participants. You will work in a small group setting that offers space for reflection\, discussion\, and peer learning. Participants are invited to bring a colleague to one of the sessions\, and those joining from abroad can take part in an additional online intervision session at no extra cost. \nBeyond the sessions themselves\, you will become part of a dynamic network of peers and gain access to the ISS alumni community. \nPractical details\nEach session requires approximately two hours of preparation. All teaching materials are included in the programme\, and upon completion you will receive a certificate from the International Institute of Social Studies. The course fee is €2\,450. \nCourse materials\nAs part of the programme\, you will receive the book Foreign Aid and its Unintended Consequences by Professor Dirk-Jan Koch\, published by Routledge in 2024. This book is included in the course fee and will be sent to you by post upon acceptance. \nIn addition\, you will have access to a series of knowledge video clips that you can watch at your own pace in preparation for the sessions. \n	Apply now!

SUMMARY:Sustain your Energy. Sustain your Impact. Part I
DESCRIPTION:Part 1 – Sustaining yourself. How do we stay engaged in work that matters without continuously drawing from our own reserves?\nWorking for positive change can be deeply meaningful. It can also be demanding. Complex problems\, slow progress\, competing priorities and the gap between what we care about and what we can actually influence can take their toll over time. \nIn this interactive two-hour workshop\, we start with ourselves: What sustains our energy – and what quietly drains it? \nThrough short inputs\, reflection\, practical exercises and exchange with others\, we’ll explore how our energy is shaped not only by workload\, but also by uncertainty\, emotional demands\, values\, boundaries and our sense of agency. \nWhat you’ll take away \nYou’ll leave with: \n\na clearer picture of what sustains and drains your energy;\ngreater awareness of your own patterns\, boundaries and sources of resilience;\npractical ways to work with your energy more intentionally;\none or two practices or experiments to take into your everyday life and work.\n\nWho is this for? \nFor people working towards positive change – including peace and justice\, climate and sustainability\, humanitarian action\, international cooperation and social impact. \nYou don’t need to be exhausted or close to burnout to join. This workshop is as much about prevention and awareness as responding to existing strain. \nPart of a two-workshop series \nThis is Part 1 of Sustain your Energy. Sustain your Impact. Each workshop can be attended independently\, but we recommend joining both for the full journey. \nPart 2 – Sustaining ourselves within systems widens the lens from our individual experience to the teams\, organisations and wider systems we work within. \nOffered in collaboration with The Hague Humanity Hub and Stroomversnellers\, with support from Stichting DOEN. \n  \nPrivacy Policy\nThe Humanity Hub collects your name\, email\, and organization (if you have one) when you sign up for events\, so they can manage the event and tell you about future ones.
