The Ghana Football Association and UEFA Assist will hold a five day leadership Retreat programme for Departmental heads and Executive Council Members.
The programme will have two parts, Situational Analysis involving top football dignitaries, media personalities, coaches’, sponsors and administrators from Tuesday, June 22 to Thursday, June 24, 2021. The second phase – a Leadership Retreat will run from Friday, June 25 to Monday, June 28, 2021.
The UEFA Assist Leadership Retreat Programme is a programme designed specifically for Presidents, Executive Council Members and General Secretaries, focusing on good governance, strategic planning and defining clear roles and responsibilities in order to deliver effective change.
This programme usually takes place over five days on site.
The first three (3) days consist of a detailed organisational review during which UEFA Assist’s Team of Experts meet with the Association’s key stakeholders.
The stakeholder feedback from the analysis would help to target the strategic priorities and the list of activities to be carried out in order to address possible issues and promote the development of football in the Association.
This UEFA Assist programme comes in addition to other partnerships between the UEFA Assist and the Ghana Football Association.
Under the UEFA Assist programme, the GFA is undertaking the following programmes:
