International Public Executive Programme

The Great Transformation

Take part of this 12th run of International Public Executive Programme that takes place in Washington DC. Please notice that the programme will partly be conducted in Danish.

In turbulent times there is a risk that the conditions for good governance are at stake. How to deliver when the political reforms are radical? How to engage in relations when distrust is brewing, and how to create knowledge regimes when “alternative facts” are sneaking in and perhaps even endorsed?

Thus, the agenda for public executives is more exciting than ever. The ability to navigate within the dichotomies;  politicians versus the administration, central versus local, elite versus “the people” are tangible dilemmas, and what happens in the US will have direct implications for the rest of the world, including Denmark.

In 2020 the programme will put emphasis on The Great Transformation focusing on Leadership and collaboration in times of political change.

While world history is being created we will meet renowned researchers, public officials, politicians and analysts giving their assessments of the developments, the conflicts and the consequences of US and global politics and economic development.

The emphasis of this year’s programme is on how the Great Transformation will change the conditions for public managers in Western countries. Take part in this journey from the front seat and join us in discussing the future that awaits us all.
