by KNAW wants to be an organisation where people can work pleasantly and be appreciated for their contribution to the common goal: high-quality scientific work and the stewardship of their collections. To achieve this goal, leadership is crucial, but so is the commitment of all staff. KNAW finds it important that everyone in the organisation is in charge of and co-responsible for their own ambitions, talents and development. The KNAW wants to invest in leadership, which is why a vision on leadership has been developed together with staff and organisational experts, with the overarching title: Appreciative leadership. This vision is a guideline and helps KNAW strengthen what goes well and work on what can be improved in terms of leadership within the KNAW. It is not intended to take a radically different route, but the vision does give us direction and priorities.
Following the published vision, an implementation plan has now also been developed. This implementation plan shows how the vision will be implemented from 2024 onwards. This implementation will be incremental, to take employees from awareness of what the vision is, to fully integrating the vision into their work.
