Funded under the Leonardo Da Vinci Transfer of Innovation, the project aims to develop an innovative training package on leadership programmes for Young Business Leaders (YBLs -University graduates trying to enter into the workforce, young professionals who want to progress to senior management positions and have less than 5 years experience or start their own company) at national and European level.
In the rapidly changing and unstable business environment that EU firms operate nowadays, junior managers must be exposed early on to leadership training, be motivated to start their own companies and be ready to handle the challenges/difficulties of today’s unstable economy. This project (Young Leaders) will achieve transparency and recognition of professional skills and qualifications for young managers and development of news skills and knowledge of VET trainers.
It should be noted that the consortium of partners will develop this project as an initiative in an effort to decrease unemployment and create outstanding leaders across Europe in the following 5-10 years, who can contribute in firms’ competitiveness. The duration of the project is 24 months (October 2012-September 2014).
