Who is it for?
Managers and heads of institutions who want to explore cutting-edge leadership tools and strategies for enhancing overall organisational performance and take time out to reflect on how they can maximise their impact on the organisations they lead.
What is it about?
Our high-level series of intensive leadership and management development programmes are run in The Gambia, with participants from the sub region, and are conducted in two formats to meet varied needs and priorities. One version is offered as a two-week intensive programme, and another is available on a modular basis spread over a 12 month period.
This programme is designed as a “Master Class” within which participants can take time to reflect on all the dynamics and potentially conflicting priorities with which are faced day-by-day.
Modules includes;
1. Advance Communication – Presentation & Report Writing
2. Negotiation & Conflict Resolution
3. Performance & People Management
4. Strategic Planning & Management
5. Budget Management Strategies
We develop and implement Monitoring & Evaluation plans with results indicators for adequately monitoring projects, and provide reporting on project implementation in terms of funds utilized, activities implemented, results obtained and difficulties encountered.
We ensure that projects are in compliance with the key performance indicators and manage risks by ensuring that;
1. Projects remain in line with the policies, procedures and broader development goals and show development outcomes and project success;
2. The projects’ operational effectiveness live up to standards and deliveries as expected;
3. Problems and deviations from agreements and project plans are detected at an early stage and necessary action is taken to remedy the situation;
4. Lessons learned are incorporated into project and portfolio management and into screening, appraisal and structuring of new project proposals.
Our monitoring and evaluation exercises can be done in partnership and in support of your M&E Unit, and quarterly ‘on the ground’
evaluation are carried out on projects being implemented and in-depth assessment reports produced. Annual assessment reports are also produced.
Distinguished by our ability to transfer knowledge and skill, we apply changes in the strategy, structure, and processes of an entire organisational system that is capable of carrying out more planned change in the future, including leadership, group dynamics and work design. We manage planned change, in a flexible manner that can be revised as new information is gathered, and involve everybody within an organisation in the creation and the subsequent reinforcement of change. We improve organisational effectiveness by helping members of the organisation to gain the skills and knowledge necessary to solve problems by involving them in the change process, and by promoting high performance including financial returns, high quality products and services, high productivity, continuous improvement and a high quality of working life.
We develop effective communication and dissemination strategies of donor and public funded projects with the sole purpose of formalising and document how information and results from projects are disseminated and to who.
We use information dissemination strategies to act as a catalyst for positive, effective, and appropriate change, expanding the general body of knowledge and providing a foundation for other developmental projects to build upon. Our well executed dissemination are also meant to influences policy and decision makers and, of course, helps to avoid projects duplication.
The exercise of developing communication strategy that we follow includes;
• Identification of relevant stakeholders;
• Identification of routes of communication and media to be used;
• Provision of a framework and schedule for dissemination; and
• Implement sustainable dissemination.
