The era of charismatic heroes is over. What we need today are people who lead with authenticity, take responsibility for strategic decisions, and understand their leadership role as an invitation: to create the space for others to do their best work. Leadership becomes an act of hosting.

What is the task of leadership?
According to SySt®, it can be described like this:

“Making strong decisions in difficult situations while providing stability and orientation – without claiming to be able to do so at all times.”

Developing Leadership capacity
Leadership means making decisions in complex situations that truly make a difference – and bringing colleagues along in the process. This requires reflection, a willingness to learn, and a deep commitment to continuous development from within. A shared vision and common values provide the essential framework.

Leadership strength can be embodied both by traditional leaders with formal authority and by people in functional leadership roles – for example in self-organised, agile circles with distributed leadership roles.

Topics:

• Leading in the space of values,

• Making strong decisions with real impact,

• Providing support and orientation,

• Embracing three valuable allies: not-knowing, helplessness, and confusion,

• Principles of social systems & psychological safety,

• Enabling colleagues,

• Leading as hosting.

Format – In Person: The Leadership training can be booked as a standalone module (1–2 days) or as part of a tailored leadership development program.

Format – Live Online: Leadership as an interactive online workshop series: 3 sessions of 4 hours each.

Who can most benefit: Managing directors, people in leadership roles, and professionals in HR or organizational development.
