Project Summary:
RADIX CONSULT conducted a transformative leadership and conflict management workshop for 16 Regional Coordinators of Assemblywomen and the Women‘s Caucus Representative of the National Association of Local Authorities of Ghana (NALAG). Using experiential learning, we navigated the everyday and unique challenges that Assemblywomen face as leaders particularly in meeting expectations of their constituents. For these women, it was a double whammy as they have to deal with gender stereotyping which questions their abilities and suitability for the role as leaders in the communities and within the local governance systems. We supported them to reframe their leadership identity by reflecting on their strengths and weakness, define their vision and develop strategies to translate vision into actionable steps and how to communicate same to garner support and build formidable work teams.
The workshop provided an opportunity for strategy sharing between a group of experienced Assemblywomen and newly elected Assemblywomen.
