UNHCR Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) Nov 2010
InterWorks conducted its tenth Emergency Team Leadership Programme (ETLP) in Switzerland from 7 to 11 November 2010.
The ETLP is a blended learning programme consisting of a pre-workshop phase with readings, peer feedback and self-assessments, a weeklong face-to-face workshop and a post-workshop learning activity. Themes which anchor the design of the ETLP include “emotional intelligence”, “situational leadership”, “’win-win’ negotiation”, “decision-making in emergencies”, “team care/trust building in emergencies” and “coaching”. All ETLP learning activities, discussions and presentations are contextualized to reflect humanitarian emergency environments, challenges and scenarios.
The programme was designed and developed by InterWorks. At the request of and in close consultation with the IASC, UNHCR serves as the institutional home for the ETLP by facilitating the tendering, overseeing the design and ensuring the delivery of the learning programme. The ETLP targets individuals within the IASC network of agencies (at the UN P4 level) who are currently leading teams or offices in the field or who expect to be available for deployment as emergency team leaders within 12 months following the workshop.
Well done! One of the best trainings I have ever done
