Leadership and Management for Integrity

CEU Summer University Course 

This course is supported by Siemens as part of the Siemens Integrity Initiative. Tiri is the project partner of CEU, which is the Integrity Partner in the project

Raising integrity standards is increasingly recognised as an effective tool to foster development and strengthen legitimate democratic governance. This course, held for the seventh year, meets a need for critical and strategic approaches to successfully reform institutions to improve levels of governance and integrity. Organisational integrity here refers in large measure to internal processes of control and value-driven reform. This course is aimed at managers, internal control specialists (e.g. investigators, compliance officers, inspectors, etc.) as well as civil society representatives. It will also be open to academics interested in offering similar courses at their own universities.

Integrity is a concept that requires the alignment of competence, accountability, corruption control, and core values. Experience suggests that only a multipronged strategy to improve integrity standards will overcome the problems posed by poor governance and corruption. A one-size-fits-all approach will not work. There is a growing recognition among leading policy practitioners that the cutting edge of sustainable reform lies at least in part in the interaction between different stakeholders. This course is one of the rare efforts to take a multi-stakeholder approach to achieve short and medium-term reform.
