NYENRODE. A REWARD FOR LIFE

IN EXCLUSIVE PARTNERSHIP

INFLUENCING EUROPEFOUR-DAY COURSE ABOUT EUROPE

You will be examining these and other topics

together with other professionals. This course

thus drives on interaction and knowledge trans-

fer between participants themselves. You will

bring your own case and work on this as a team.

Renowned academics and experienced professio-

nals will shed light on these issues at the heart of

the European Union, at UM Campus Brussels.

GOALS AND VALUE OF THE COURSEOn the one hand you gain insights in the EU system

of governance, European policies and the implemen-

tation of the EU legislation. On the other hand you

acquire broader skills needed in order to grow

you influencing skills such as an understanding

of leadership abilities, underlying neurological

networks that influence decision making and

general management capabilities. Therefore, this

course deals with a wide angle of aspects making

it a well-rounded and suited programme for any-

one working or wanting to work in the European

Environment in Brussels.

ACTION LEARNING PROJECTSThe Action learning project will allow you to work

in small groups on a case that is related to the

topic of the course. We ask you before starting

the course, to prepare on this aspect by reflecting

on your current role and what you will need to

do in order to reach further within the European

environment. At the end of the course you will

‘pitch’, present the outcomes of the action-

learning project to an audience of academics and

professionals and receive input on your strategy.

INFLUENCING EUROPE

• Do you need to interact with EU institutions or agencies; or would you like to have

access to the EU processes?

• Do you have keep up to date with latest trends and developments

in order to perform your day-to-day activities adequately?

• Would you like to improve your influencing skills?

• Do you want to extend your “EU” network?

If your answer to one or more questions is ‘yes’, then this course is very useful for you.

This four-day course focus on acquiring knowledge about Europe, on high-level skills needed

to be able to exert influence in the EU environment, such as complex leadership skills, insides

into the decision making process and management skills. These managerial skills and insides

acquired through the action-learning project are detrimental to succeeding in such a
