CLI’s Intensive Trainings provide you with the same skills and methodologies like our open courses in an adapted online format.
You can choose between four different course types that each lead to a specific course certificate and three of them together to the certification Collective Leadership Specialist.

This e-course certification module will help you to implement more outcome-oriented and constructive co-creation on a day-to-day basis for yourself, your team, your organisation, and your change initiative with diverse stakeholders. It equips dedicated change makers in the public and private sector, as well as civil society organisations, with a tool for better co-creation. The dimensions of collective leadership can be learned and enhanced – individually and collectively.
Are you starting a complex cooperation project, or are you in the midst of one you want to improve? Do you need to shift the mind-set of stakeholders toward collaboration, or to find new ways to overcome challenges? Do you need to arrive at tangible outcomes in a short time frame?
The tool presented in The Art of Leading Collectively – the Collective Leadership Compass – helps you to keep your collaboration journey on track and to find the necessary course corrections.

We continue to modularize CLI’s online learning offers in future. This will offer you the opportunity to collect credits for the above mentioned certificates if you participate short courses or work with CLI’s online tools. We will update our credit system for this regularly.
CLI offers other formats of online learning that supplement our trainings or can also be used as resources for individual learning. However, to dive deep into the topics of stakeholder collaboration and collective leadership, we recommend participating in our intensive trainings.
