Leadership Day — find ways in the wicked problems
All organizations are perfectly equipped to create the results that they create today. But if we are to find the solutions for the welfare society of the future, we must take a different approach. It requires bold, experimental and boundary-crossing leadership. Yes, maybe even wild management?
At Resonans, we have great success working with cross-cutting management tasks in leadership workshops, where the leaders of the organization are gathered across disciplines, positions and different organizational logics.
A natural focus of the cross-border management approach is the complex cross-cutting problems, which call for innovation and cooperation both across professional groups, but also in relation to citizens, associations and external partners.
Inspiration for program outline
- Policy framing and dialogue on visions and the need for expectation management regarding finances and services to citizens
- Strategic debate and dialogue linked to long-term welfare changes, challenge images, potentials and organizational strength positions, as well as a sharp focus on barriers in cross-sector collaboration.
- Expert and knowledge presentations reflecting on the task of leadership and role shift both as an individual, organisation and local community
- Dialogue and brainstorming processes, where we produce solutions for new collaboration formats and experiments across and outwardly through co-creation and partnerships. We think big and start small — and track & fan the good examples.
What are wicked problems?
Wicked problems don't recognize boundaries. Neither subject boundaries nor organizational structures.
Wicked problems, such as the crisis in well-being, the climate crisis, recruitment challenges and the pressured health and elderly sector, call for cross-border solutions, in which citizens and civil society also take new forms of shared responsibility.
Wild problems unfold in a multicomplex system of influences, where multiple movements combine produce positive progress.
Results — New roads across
- Strengthened strategic foundation and clarification between politicians and different leadership positions
- Solutions and ideas for more cross-functional cooperation and concrete experiments and 100-day programs
- Strengthening of the managers' strategic and reflexive competencies on management dilemmas and the need for expectation management and cross-cutting priorities

Every mind into the game!
Traditional management and organisation models often do not support the ambitions inherent in vision and strategy. It takes something else and more to succeed today and in the future. There is a need for more flexible forms of organisation, cross-border cooperation, leadership and actions that cross sectors and create new partnerships.
We challenge our clients, both public and private, to bring their customers, users, citizens, boards and political actors into both the development and realization of visions and strategies. It creates new ideas across the board and ensures the necessary and crucial ownership that is the prerequisite for action and acceleration of result creation. Every mind into the game!
In Resonans, through our approach and cooperation with our customers and partners, we contribute to solutions to wildly complex problems such as labour shortages, the green transition and health inequalities and insecurity.
