Leadership Programme

May 17-21, 2026

Preparing for Strategic Professional Leadership

The world is not lacking declarations of equity in international partnerships. Yet the rationale for seeking equity goes much beyond that it is the ethical HUMANE is launching a new programme in 2026 “Preparing for Strategic Professional Leadership” designed to cultivate the leadership skills of experienced professional service senior leaders (e.g. directors of HR, finances, estates, IT, etc.) who aspire to move into more senior positions.

The programme will foster creative, out-of-the-box thinking by immersing participants in a dynamic learning environment that will stretch their thinking beyond their everyday workplace and national contexts. It will enhance their ability to connect and respond to complex issues found in more senior roles. By learning from their European and international peers, participants will develop broader perspectives and enhance their leadership capabilities.
