Based on your learning objectives, background, and focus areas, we’ll match you with a training group with similar professionals. This way, the training will be aligned with your situation and learning objectives.

  • The two-day training program ‘Stakeholder Management’ is spread over two weeks. Each training day combines inspiration, theory, and practical exercises. There will be a mix of plenary sessions, group assignments, and time for reflection. This way, the skills you acquired can be put to use right away.

    In between the two training days, you’ll apply what you’ve learned in your daily work. During the second training day, you’ll discuss your experiences, insights, and results with the trainer and the group. Your training program ends with a personal evaluation and a clear plan of action for the future.
