Leadership is a topic that surrounds as all the time. Good leaders make the difference and create trust. But how do leaders achieve that in an effective way? What works well and what does not? How do you find ways to connect to people, to inspire them and to get results – for yourself, your team and your organization?

Our guest speaker Jolanda Prijs is director at FranklinCovey, Netherlands, a global company on leadership and organizational development. Based on the leadership philosophy of Stephen Covey, FranklinCovey has developed a portfolio of services on leadership. Well known is his international bestseller “The 7 habits of Highly Effective people” that sold over 15 million copies worldwide.

Jolanda started her career after law school as a tax inspector and manager. Soon she discovered that working with people and organizations was her true passion. Therefore, Jolanda decided to make a remarkable career shift and joined FranklinCovey in 2002, where she is now the managing partner and is also working with several clients herself.

At our annual summer dinner we will enjoy a delicious three-course meal at the Peper & Zout which is entirely reserved for us for the whole evening. Jolanda will introduce us to the concept of “Leading for Greatness”: How can you lead yourself and your organization to the next step of what you can achieve? In the course of this evening Jolanda will share personal experiences and present useful concepts that will inspire you to achieve greatness. Don’t miss this interesting evening that will take you many steps further…
