July 05, 2017On 4 July, the EU Advisory Mission held a seminar on leadership to senior management team at Khmelnitskiy Police Headquarters and Patrol Police senior managers based in the region.
The seminar aimed at providing an overview over modern leadership and management approaches, delegation techniques and empowerment in change management.

Kestutis Lancinskas, Head of EUAM, in his presentation underlined that a leader is a person who takes responsibility and shows direction. “Leadership is what drives a team,” he said. “Success depends on people. We may have nice buildings and excellent equipment, but, if we do not enjoy citizens’ trust all that has no value,” pointed out Kestutis Lancinskas.
