We invite you to present your experience/research and workshops relating to this year’s topic (see the detailed information about the conference theme under the Welcome menu item):

Does leadership matter? Implications for Leadership Development and the School as a Learning Organisation
Contributions should relate to the conference theme.

Types of contributions
Three types of presentations will be welcomed in the parallel sessions:

a) Formal papers. During these sessions presenters will have 20 minutes to introduce the content of the paper followed by 10 minutes of discussion or response to questions.

b) Workshops. These will consist of interactive activities covering two full sessions(workshops 1st and 2nd round). They can be presented by several people on a common theme. The two sessions should include: a presentation and structured discussion, and/or experiential activities relating to new models and methods. Workshops are ideal place to introduce new methods, research and development programs.

c) Networking. Presenters will have the opportunity to display visual information about their topic and engage in discussion with interested delegates. Posters are welcomed about an issue on which you are looking for partners, for example, starting new research, development and innovation projects.

Times may be adjusted depending on the pattern of the activities requested and the number of participants.

Please indicate the type of presentation you intend to make (formal, workshop or networking) and indicate, on your registration form, any technical requirements (OHPs and PowerPoint will be available in all rooms).
