About The Project Leadership Institute

The Project Leadership Institute is a world-class learning organisation. Founded by people with extensive experience and passion for development, we are taking the project management community to the next level. Our transformational leadership programme impacts the heart, the soul and the mind. And the results can be directly implemented on the participants' projects, for instance through the creation of high trust environments, sustainable client relationships and improved delivery. OUR PHILOSOPHY We believe that authentic leadership is one of the most important attributes for people who run projects. When a person is authentic there is harmony between what they think, feel, say and do. On the other hand, if this alignment is not present, the project manager may be neither trustworthy nor inspiring. The goal of our project leadership programme is to help the participants locate and expand the source of their leadership. True leadership doesn’t come from emulating others. Nor does it come from blindly following a specific set of rules. It is a deeply personal approach, which is rooted in who we are as people. HOW DO WE TRAIN? Our diverse set of exercises creates insight and awareness. With that comes the ability to choose the right responses to challenging project situations. As facilitators we provide a safe environment for participants to open up and explore who they are as leaders. We thereby give them the space – and confidence – to try out new approaches. All our modules are highly interactive and practical. We know that people have different preferences and learning styles. To engage all types, we work with varying group sizes and different learning methods, including theory, reflective exercises, NLP, peer learning, feedback, personality profiling and experiential learning. Although theory and reflection are vital in creating new insight, it’s practice and feedback that will really help the participants to make a positive change.
