Overview
Effective responses to complex problems such as vulnerable children, place-based disadvantage and sustainable energy solutions require an holistic understanding of the problem and co-ordinated responses from across government, industry and the community sector.
Through challenging real-world case studies, develop the mindsets, models and tools of a switched-on policy operator to take coherent action in these complex multi-actor environments.
This module is part of the Enterprise Leadership series. Learn more
What you will learn
Policy professionals who really cut through understand their environment and the dynamics of the network in which they achieve change. They need to be savvy to the political context and understand what change is possible at any point in time. They can then provide pragmatic and effective ways forward that meet the needs of multiple stakeholders.
Who should participate?
Delivering Complex Policy assists those who work with a diverse range of stakeholders to deliver social, economic or environmental policy or service delivery change. This could include:
- Policy Advisors
- Program Executives and Managers
- Team Leaders
As part of QUT's Enterprise Leadership series, this course aligns to the Leadership competencies for Queensland. Call our team on 07 3138 6573 to learn more, or download the competency map.
