Self-Leadership Skills

The program is aimed at graduates of universities/technical institutions, as well as graduates of secondary education who are looking to improve their professional skills.

The purpose of the program is to enhance the participants' skills in the field of self-leadership through theory, the provision of examples, case studies, and best practices. Self-leadership encompasses a set of skills that enable an individual to lead themselves and, by extension, to lead and motivate others.
Participants will be introduced to concepts such as self-knowledge and self-organization, which they will later relate to parameters involving the management of various, sometimes challenging, situations they may encounter, effective ways to achieve goals and a methodology for proper planning, the creation of action plans, and actions that increase the likelihood of success are presented. Additionally, participants will become familiar with the concept of uncertainty and ways to manage it in the decision-making process.

Finally, they are encouraged to develop innovative thinking and understand the contribution of entrepreneurship in this direction.
