Suwon Implements Coaching Leadership Training for Female Public Officials

On the 26th, Suwon held coaching leadership training for 47 female public officials at the grade 6 or lower level at the Gyeonggi Province Family Women Research Institute.

This training was organized as part of the gender mainstreaming foundation strengthening project, a promise of the fifth popular election period, designed to proactively respond to the need for female public officials to demonstrate their capabilities as social leaders.

In this training, female public officials learned core competencies required as social leaders, diverse coaching skills for different situations, and know-how for happy growth of individuals and organizations from four instructors: Kim Sun-hee, head of the Education Consulting Team at the Gyeonggi Province Family Women Research Institute; Yun Young-sook, head of the Saeill Center Central Support Headquarters; Joo Hee-jin, director of the Leadership Diversity Center; and Shim Young-seop, professor at Daegu Cyber University.

Through this training, female public officials are expected to enhance their leadership as female leaders and facilitate smooth communication, and through maintaining desirable relationships, they will work to increase trust within the organization.

Choi Hee-soon, director of the City's Welfare and Women Affairs Division, said, "Through this training, I expect female public officials to develop intellectual capacity and expertise as female leaders who will lead future global society, and play an important role in creating a 'Human City Suwon where people are welcomed,' centered on citizens."
