Leibniz Leadership Academy

Leaders shape the institutions they work in through their attitudes and actions. This means they have a particular responsibility for the culture and development of their institutes. The Leibniz Leadership Academy aims to strengthen their effectiveness as leaders and work towards a modern leadership culture.

The Academy supports Leibniz leaders, helping them to perform their roles as guiding, mobilising and culture-shaping personalities. The idea is for individuals to reflect on their leadership role in the context of their own experiences and challenges. The programmes present modern leadership theories and models that participants can use to enrich their personal toolbox and expand the courses of action available to them.

The alternating in-person and online modules also offer an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas and network with colleagues.
