About this organization
Mission
To improve the training and education of foreign services officers (continued on schedule O) and their civil service colleagues at the state department.
About
Leadership and management training. The US Diplomatic Studies Foundation spent a year visiting various other departments and agencies to learn about their best training and education practices. A key to success identified across the board was putting time and resources into leadership and management training. Thus DSF is working with business schools to create a robust training module focused on leadership and management skills. The goal of this program is to provide an offsite, multi-disciplinary training program that includes classroom and external teaching sessions, case studies, and seminars built to deliver unique content in the context of current FSI programs that will enhance the knowledge, experience, and skills of emerging state department leaders to prepare them for positions of greater responsibility. The target audience will be ten to fifteen emerging department leaders per course drawn from foreign service officers and civil servants working toward serving or currently serving as DCM, head of political section, deputy assistant secretary, assistant secretary, ambassador or similar duties.
