Lead for Impact: Leadership & Team Coordination in CSOs (Part A)

The aim of this training is to support CSO professionals and coordinators in leading teams within a demanding and often fluid environment: limited resources, multiple roles, time pressure, and high expectations.

Through a participatory and practical approach, participants will work on real-life challenges drawn from their own organisations and leave the workshop equipped with three practical tools that can be immediately applied: role clarity, structured team communication, and feedback & delegation with clear expectations.

The overall goal is to strengthen collaboration, reduce burnout and friction, and increase organisational impact.
