LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

In-house – Human-centered – tailor-made
for (team) leaders and people managers

WHAT MAKES LEADERSHIP TRULY IMPACTFUL?

Leadership isn’t about applying the right tools and frameworks. It’s about developing a deep awareness of yourself and others – so you can meet people where they are. When that genuine connection is present, vibrant and impactful leadership follows naturally.

WHAT DOES THE PROGRAM COVER?

Every program is tailored to your organisation’s specific needs. That said, certain themes come up again and again because these challenges are so universal:

  • How can I communicate in way that is empowering, motivating and effective – especially when working in international teams?

  • How can I share feedback in a way so that my team is hearing- and acting upon it?

  • How can I best engage in a challenging conversation – be it because of a tension, a conflict or a delicate situation that needs to be addressed?

  • What can I practically do to strengthen the dynamics in my team?

  • How can I manage mine – and my team’s time, focus and energy so we can create more impact with less stress?

We won’t just look at these challenges individually; we’ll also explore how different topics are linked to each other.

WHAT RESULTS CAN YOU EXPECT?

Real change doesn’t happen in the training room – it happens on the job. That is why every session is designed with its practical application in mind. Each participant will leave with concrete actions they can integrate into their daily reality. It’s these small, intentional shifts that create the real and lasting change.

HOW DOES IT WORK PRACTICALLY?

We start with a conversation about your organisation’s needs; then co-design a program that fits your context. A few questions help shape the sessions:

Will the program take place face-to-face, online, or a combination?
Will the sessions be scheduled at regular intervals, or compressed in one period?
Would you like to integrate individualised coaching sessions for each participant for more integration?

IS THIS PROGRAM RIGHT FOR YOUR ORGANISATION?

You are in the right place if:

  • Your managers are leading across cultures, time zones, or remote setups.
  • You’ve tried training before, but the change didn’t stick.
  • You want something tailored to your actual challenges — not an off-the-shelf solution.
  • You believe lasting leadership growth happens on the job, not just in a workshop.

We won’t just look at these challenges individually; we’ll also explore how different topics are linked to each other.

Alessia – HR Manager

Many thanks for such INSPIRING, PRACTICAL and USEFUL training on people management! Lieke’s facilitation was impeccable, and she even shared lots of her own personal experiences, which made us participants much more relaxed and less afraid to share our own. I am planning to replicate some tools with my team during our next face to face meeting.
Lina, Knowledge Management Team Leader, MSF Geneva.

Lieke is EXCEPTIONAL. I have participated in Lieke’s trainings and received one-on-one coaching, and both experiences have been TRANSFORMATIVE. As a coach, she brings enthusiasm, expertise, and offering fresh perspectives that have helped me tackle obstacles with confidence. Thanks to her guidance, I’VE GROWN both as a manager and as an individual.

Lieke has been a FANTASTIC trainer, she understood the challenges our managers were facing and has helped creating an INTERACTIVE SAFE SPACE where everyone felt they could share their experiences and get very useful tips from others. It was not an easy task with a group of managers working remotely from all around the world, but she handled it really well! Everybody was grateful for the training and feels now BETTER EQUIPPED for their management responsibilities going forward!
Alessia, Human Resources Manager, GSF

Lieke really TAILORS her trainings to support, guide and empower the people in front of her. Each time will be different because she ADAPTS to what each individual or group needs most. This ‘tailoring’ is often talked about, but rarely actually done beyond a superficial level. She creates GREAT MOMENTUM, and collaborating with her is huge FUN!
Caroline, Founder/Trainer, Blue Sky Collective.

Lieke was knowledgeable about the subject matter and used latest methods and theories in developing the training. It was well-structured, informative and proved USEFUL AND PRACTICAL. Participants appreciated her INTERACTIVE, friendly and concise approach. Lieke is a reliable and pleasant professional to work with. I highly recommend her.
Waheeb, Area Manager at UNDP.

Lieke is brilliant, really – so proud to have been part of this essential training – I really enjoyed the methodology, content, INCLUSIVE APPROACH, facilitation, and she shared personal examples that ANCHOR RELATION, trust and show how much we are all vulnerable.
Carole, Manager at MSF Geneva.

The training helped me to SEE MY PROBLEMS DIFFERENTLY. And when I’m less upset, I can also have a better dialogue. It helped me to not take everything personally so now I even SLEEP BETTER.
Cyrille, Technical Referent

I had the immense chance to do a People Management Training with Lieke and I preciously BENEFIT FROM IT DAILY! There is a lot of self-reflection and tools to manage ourselves with the others, regardless the hierarchical link we have with them. I still keep this training in my heart. It was such A GIFT FROM THE UNIVERSE that I think that each human being in our organisation should access this training.
Mathilde, Pharmacy Manager, Médecins sans Frontières
