* Leading with Vision, Value and Strategy Strategic leadership is a hot topic in public and nonprofit management. This course provides a framework for leading a strategy- focused, highly effective organization. OUELI's 3.5 day flagship program provides a foundation in the managerial concepts of public value and strategy, and empowers public leaders to develop highly effective organizations.
* Aligning Performance Measures, Strategy and Politics Leaders have at their fingertips a seemingly endless stream of data, but how do you know if your organization is successful? And how do you know what data you should pay attention to? You are invited to a 2-day course focused on using performance data strategically: knowing what to measure, using the data, and communicating this data to stakeholders.
*Courage and Compromise in Public Leadership Where do you draw the line between taking a courageous stand and making a compromise? This course uses historical writings on leadership, presenters sharing their experiences leading organizations, and case study discussions to explore this question.
Join us for a 2-day exploration into decision making and public leadership,
* Leading Change
Change is constant in organizations today. This program's concepts will help you understand change and utilize it as a powerful tool to enhance the public value your organization creates. With an interactive computer simulation and class discussions, this 2-day session will cover what it takes to lead a change initiative, how to deal with resistance, and how to sustain change efforts.

TEACHING EMPATHY
www.balanceeducation.net
Empathy is the ability to feel what others are feeling. Empathy is the identification with, and the understanding of, another's situation, emotions and motives. In other words, it is the ability to see the world through that person's eyes. Empathy influences us to treat others with respect and kindness; in turn it reduces violence and cruelty to others.
Most people are born with the ability to be empathetic. However, certain life experience can diminish that ability. Children who have experienced domestic violence or some other form of abuse are especially at-risk for diminished empathy.
Research supports the provision of empathy training to increase empathetic feelings and pro-social behavior. Research also shows an impressive correlation between students' training and skills in empathetic understanding and their academic performance.
