Oslo International School

Oslo International School commissioned a two-day leadership/managent course for its extended management team, consisting of both experienced leaders and team leaders net to their leadership role. The course was provided in English by Svein Harald Røine.
As Head of School, and responsible for commissioning the training I am highly satsisfied with the outcome. Svein Harald Røine has an honest, courageous approach to his audience and is immensely inspiring, as well as trustworthy as his experience is both first hand an professional. His course is practical and all our leaders, experienced and inexperienced, were provided with leadership and communication tools and techniques, which we can easily adapt to our own working environment. These take-away elements are significant to my strong recommendation of Røine's course.
To provide a broader feedback and reference for Røine, I have asked for comments from participants, quoted below:
"Great practical leadership skills that can be directly implemented at work on a daily basis. My meetings are much more structured now! Your course gave our leadership team a common ground to discuss and improve our skills as leaders. (Deputy Principal Lower Secondary)"
"I found Svein Harald's presentation very inspirational. I liked that he shared personal anecdotes of both his own successes and failures as a leader, so as to encourage us to find solutions to problems that can at first appear overwhelming. I learned how to recognise different personality types within my team, and how best to communicate with them so as to make the most of the skills that they bring to team projects. I also found his practical tips, such as introducing an action log/decision log very helpful" (Primary Team Leader)
"The training we received from Svein Harald Røine was very good and I found it both engaging and useful for my current job and on my journey as a new leader" (Pre-School Leader)
"My personal take away was being able to see people for who they are and being able to reach them and lead them, sort of a "no man left behind" philosophy. I found the DISC model to be a useful tool for this. It was also interesting to see myself on the scale, being an introvert who is task oriented with a strong desire to lead. I also really resonated with the praise and TA-DA moments. I think we could all use a little more praise in our lives. Lastly, I really appreaciated Svein Harald's reality check with the three questions relating to how big is this problem on a world scale. I thought that was an important message and important to remember. "(Primary Team Leader)
"A very good portrait of the different types of people we will have to collaborate with in any workplace and some useful strategies to use them (and with ourselves) if we are to have productive interpersonal relationships with them!" (Secondary Team Leader)
"The best leadership training I have ever done in my thirty years in education" (Secondary Principal)
Oslo International School strongly recommends Svein Harald Røine as a leadership mentor, coach and motivational speaker.
