Foundations of Leadership for Administrators and Chief & Council – Part 1 – Leading Self

  • This event has passed.

Originally offered by FNPSS in July/August 2020, this training series is back by popular demand!

Here is what some Series 1 participants had to say:

“Clear your schedule and turn off your phone because you’ll be sad if you miss a minute!”
“This training series inspires all leaders to courageously stand in our own values.”
“I would recommend any leader in a FN community to take this workshop series.”

Are you a new, seasoned, or aspiring administrator or elected leader hoping to take your leadership skills to the next level? If so, this training is designed for you! Register by October 15, 2021! Seating is limited as it is a small group.

The leadership series – Part 1 features six 2.5-hour interactive online training sessions developed by a First Nations advisory group and Laara Yaghujaanas, an Indigenous governance specialist. The sessions in the first part – “Leading Self” – of this three-part series build on one another and focus on the following topics:

  • Leading Self
  • Team Development
  • Conflict Management
  • Systems Thinking
  • Organizational Development
  • Strategic Planning
