Public Program: Learning to Lead Adaptively

This two-day program is appropriate for executives and managers interested in developing their personal or organizational leadership, and is open to participants from all sectors. Learning to Lead Adaptively participants represent a wide variety of organizations, functional areas and leadership experiences. Through a combination of case studies, discussions, small group work and guided reflection, participants grow their adaptive capacity by learning to use the resources of Adaptive Leadership that can enable greater and faster progress on their toughest challenges.

  • Develop capacity to face uncertainty about personal approaches and styles;

Adapting and Leading in the New Energy Environment

Adapting and Leading in the New Energy Environment - Coming Fall 2010

Where will your organization be in 5 years? Will you find new opportunities in the changing energy technologies, public policies, and economic realities, or will you be left behind?  It’s easy to be in front of the crowd when you know where you are going.  It’s very different when things will never be the same again and the future is not only unknown, but unknowable.

The Adapting and Leading in the New Energy Environment program will help you thrive in this rapidly changing environment. A joint venture of the Public Utility Research Center (PURC) and Cambridge Leadership Associates (CLA), Adapting and Leading is a highly experiential program focused on the actual exercise of leadership, developing usable strategies, practical tools and action steps to adapt quickly to unforeseeable change, and providing a framework for navigating complex and uncertain environments. Adapting and Leading is based on the adaptive leadership model developed by Harvard faculty Dr. Ron Heifetz and Marty Linsky, the founders of CLA, and on PURC’s more than 30 years of leadership in energy research and education.

CLA’s clients include the Aspen Institute, British Telecommunications, CISCO, Federal Reserve Bank, Google, McKinsey and Company, Shell Oil, and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. In addition to its extensive research on energy policy, PURC has provided educational programs on energy issues for organizations representing 140 countries.
