The
course enables NGO leaders and managers to develop and refine
core competencies strategic to managing development
organizations in an era of rapid globalization. This course is
designed to increase the learner’s ability to describe and
critique NGO social change strategies; review concepts and
theories of leadership, and allow them to reflect on their own
leadership style and behavior; and identify characteristics of
effective leaders and to apply them to existing NGO leaders.
The highlight of the course is the simultaneous application of
individual and team learning with learners from other Global
Partnership sites in Bangladesh, Peru and the USA.
This
course serves as the gateway or entry course to the Postgraduate
Diploma in NGO Leadership and Management in BRAC-Bangladesh or
via on-line course offerings by the Global Partnership Program
starting in 2003. Upon successful completion of the diploma
course, a qualified candidate may pursue the Master of
International and Intercultural Management degree at School of
International Training (SIT). Program participants are
registered with the School for International Training located in
Brattleboro, Vermont, USA and achieve US accredited academic
credit hours. Participants are also encouraged to participate in
the NGOLDSC course even if they do not plan to pursue the full
academic program of the diploma and/or the Master's degree
offered through the Global Partnership program.
