Leadership is demanding and is becoming increasingly complex. Thinking outside the box opens up new solutions. This is precisely where Leaders in Exchange comes in: The innovative further education program brings together experienced leaders from business and educational institutions and creates space for genuine exchange at eye level.
Leaders in Exchange is a joint offering of the Association of School Principals Zurich VSLZH, Young Enterprise Switzerland YES and economiesuisse. The aim is to rethink leadership and learn from each other. In carefully selected tandems, the participants spend eight months discussing specific leadership issues from their day-to-day work, reflecting on their role and observing each other in their organizations.
The added value lies in the change of perspective: managers from companies gain insights into the management of educational institutions and vice versa. Participants gain new food for thought for their own organization, strengthen their leadership personality and expand their network in the long term. The direct exchange strengthens mutual understanding and promotes leadership skills that are central to both worlds.
The program is accompanied by three central evening events that provide impetus and promote networking:
- Kick-Off: Thursday, 22. October 2026, 5.30-8.30 pm
- Leadership Boost: Thursday, February 4, 2027, 5.30-8.30 pm
- Celebration: Tuesday, June 29, 2027, 5.30-8.30 pm
