The government of Burundi appealed to
the World Bank Institute (WBI) for help in strengthening the
capacities of leadership to implement policies and programs
that would achieve measurable results. The new government
needed to make tough decisions on competing priorities,
including allocating an estimated US$12 billion to achieve
the millennium development goals, and carrying out reforms
to ensure efficient allocation of public resources. The
government understood it would need to invest in leadership
development in order to drive change at the institutional
level and achieve results, and that this would require more
than the traditional classroom method of leadership
training. Instead, the following approaches were needed: 1)
training programs adapted to the needs of leaders; 2) a
learning-by-doing approach to capacity development; and 3) a
participatory approach to action planning, work planning,
and defining modalities for resource management. |
