3 Short courses offered by the university

The Cross-Functional Leadership programme from The London Interdisciplinary School (LIS) is a short course for those who lead teams of people with different expertise. Rather than handing you templates, it draws on interdisciplinary methods (systems thinking, collaboration, collective decision-making and integration) to help you break out of siloed leadership and lead confidently across functions.

The Power and the Polycrisis short course at The London Interdisciplinary School (LIS) explores the overlapping crises of our age: climate breakdown, inequality, conflict, food insecurity and forced migration. These challenges are interconnected and shaped by systems of power. You will examine how power, policy and economics drive global change, putting you in a stronger position to act.

The Systems Thinking for Sustainability short course at The London Interdisciplinary School (LIS) introduces systems thinking as a way to rethink how you approach sustainability. You will explore the essential techniques and insights behind it, and build the holistic, interdisciplinary mindset needed to tackle today's most complex and interconnected ecological challenges.
