A key part of what it takes to be a leader is the capacity to solve problems and there are usually lots of those in a not-for-profit environment. Many of these are complex problems. There's an important distinction between a complex and a complicated problem. Typically a complicated problem can be solved with hard work and the application of a technical expertise. Like solving a maths problem, or writing a great press release. Often what makes a problem complex is the people factor – personalities, politics and power.

Key learning outcomes:

• This session will give you tools and a framework to support you to ramp up your talent for solving complex problems.
• We’ll use case studies to ensure you get a webinar that is engaging, accessible and practical. 

Who should attend:

This session is for people within not-for-profit organisations who take a leadership position, either formally or informally. In healthy and happy organisations leadership happens everywhere.
