News
SYNERGIA- why is it worth it?
By taking a position that qualifies you to participate in the SYNERGIA project, you have undoubtedly already participated in many trainings, courses, projects, etc., developing your competences. However, are your knowledge and skills still up-to-date?
What is SYNERGIA?
SYNERGIA is a challenge for people who want to consciously and with commitment change the administration, improving their competences and implementing good practices in their home institution.
Who do we invite to the project?
The project participant is a public administration institution which delegates its representatives to participate in the project, i.e. senior management. Detailed information:
https://synergia.ksap.gov.pl/rekrutacja/grupa-docelowa/
What do we want to achieve?
When implementing the project, we want to:
- develop and strengthen the management competences of high-level public administration staff,
- create a cooperation network,
- create a place for the exchange of information and experience in the field of innovation and changes in the field of management of public administration institutions,
- implement good management practices developed under the SYNERGIA project in public administration institutions.
Two parts of each edition
Each edition of the project consists of two parts: the educational and cooperation training program and the implementation part. The training session in Riga, held on February 23-25, 2022, with the participation of participants from Poland, Bulgaria, Latvia and Hungary, ended the training part of the 2nd edition. The implementation of good practices is ahead of us – the obligatory part for participants from Poland.
Summary of the educational part of the 2nd edition
During the ceremonial completion of the educational and cooperation part, representatives of partner institutions present in Riga, i.e. Dr. Wojciech Federczyk, Director of KSAP, Pavel Ivanov, Director of the Bulgarian Institute of Public Administration and Agita Kalvina, Director of the Latvian School of Public Administration, summed up the implementation of the training program in 2nd edition of the project. On behalf of the Hungarian project partner, University of Public Service, a Hungarian participant gave the summary from the Synergia project coordinator at UPS.
What does the summary show? The program is a unique program in Europe to educate senior management officials in public administration. Why? Because it is adapted to the realities of public administration, and it is here that officials – managers / leaders from different countries meet, who can talk together about similar challenges and how to deal with them. It is here that the leader of the administration has the opportunity to develop the competences necessary for a high position he occupies, based on the latest methods and world trends, here he has a chance to determine whether his knowledge and skills are still up-to-date, which he should pay attention to in order to be a more effective leader .
Benefits of participating in the project – an individual point of view
Representatives of partner countries, in specially prepared summary presentations, showing the most interesting experiences of the second edition of the project, focused on the individual aspects of participation in the project that are important to them.
Particular attention was paid to:
- the possibility of developing individual management competences in the areas covered by the project and, as a result, strengthening own managerial potential,
- the inspiring nature of the education program, both in terms of personal professional development and the possibility of implementing new practices in domestic institutions,
- the possibility of confronting own ideas with good practices developed by experts,
- atmosphere of mutual cooperation and motivation to act,
- a chance to meet people who can engage with passion in creating new solutions for the administration.
“I would like to express once again my gratitude for the efforts of all of you – the organizers from KSAP, IPA, LSPA and NUPS for the perfect organization of the modules, for the wonderful selection of lecturers and for the opportunity to be a part of Synergia!”
