Co-Lead Lab Pilot Workshop Series 



Presented by Leadership in Action at Wagner and Professor Sonia Ospina



This new leadership development workshop series for NYU Wagner students features four expert-led one-day workshops during the Spring 2017 semester. Trainers from social change organizations will showcase participatory tools and techniques to support change efforts and offer experiential learning opportunities to practice the leadership capabilities required to implement them. The workshops are free and registration will be first come first serve (students may sign-up for as few or as many workshops as they are able to attend). 



Systems Thinking



Adequately addressing such challenges requires capabilities to see the larger system, foster reflection to uncover mental models that act as barriers and shift the collective focus towards co-creating the future. Theory U helps leaders in a multi-stakeholder process to shift the nature of institutional relationships to enhance collaboration and develop innovative solutions to persistent challenges. The Systems Thinking: An Application through Theory U Workshops will be structured as an experiential learning opportunity to better address such challenges, whether from the perspective of businesses, government or civil society. It will equip students with systems thinking skills through exposure to the Theory U methodology, case studies, and practical application.
