NEW: Global Leadership ProgrammeThe Global Leadership Programme (GLP) is an exciting new initiative which aims to develop students’ skills for working successfully with cultural difference through the tools of experiential learning and reflection. The programme will span a range of activities and include workshops and a residential trip to Berlin to increase participants’ global awareness as well as their ability to operate effectively in cross-cultural settings.

Applications will be open to students across all departments who are due to enter their final year of undergraduate study in 2016/17. The programme will equip participants with key skills as they prepare for the global employment market on graduation.

The programme will run from July to December 2016, with selection of candidates taking place in early June and a formal exhibition event being held in December 2016.

Residential tripGroup tasks set over the summer will prepare students for a 5-day residential stay in Berlin in which participants will immerse themselves in a city known for both cultural divisions and creative transformation. On return, students will have time to reflect on meetings held and on their own experiences. These reflections will contribute to a group assignment due at the GLP exhibition event in December at which the certificate of completion will be awarded to those who have successfully completed the programme.

A maximum of 6 students will be admitted onto the programme from each Faculty at Royal Holloway. The selection process will entail a professional assessment-centre approach, which may include activities such as psychometric testing, group exercises, problem-solving and other tasks. If shortlisted, applicants must be able to attend the assessment centre during the week commencing 6th June 2016.
