WELCOME TO NMP29
October 2024 – april 2025
Nordic Media Programme NMP supports growth of personal leadership and leadership of change through major changes of ways-of-thinking and operating in Nordic newsmediahouses. The role of NMP is to provide a context and a network of-peers for leaders to develop their thoughts of purpose, plans for action and how to engage their organisations in current or imminent changes at hand. To date, more than 150 alumni of NMP are active leaders on various levels in the companies.
The signature element of NMP is that we dedicate an exceptional amount of time for participants to work together to solve challenges of leadership and change they bring with them to the workshop. The problem-solving, innovative work is triggered by compelling questions and supported by learning-coaches experts in different aspects of leadership and change.
We welcome you to read more about NMP below and consider signing up for this leadership quest!
Looking back at NMP 27 I can only describe it as a really special experience. The different sessions were challenging and gave me an opportunity to reflect on personal growth and try to understand how to become the leader that I want to be in the future. My biggest takeaway is all awesome participants that I got to know during the program and that I now call them my friends. I strongly recommend joining the program.

THOUGHTS ON NMP
THE NMP WAY OF WORKING
As opposed to traditional leadership programmes, the NMP-sessions are not filled with endless powerpoint presentations. In NMP time is dedicated to co-working on solutions and finding answers that will serve all participants. The learning process of challenging with questions and taking part in dialogue is lead by experienced and passionate coaches, firestarters, knowledge creators and researchers in the fields of leadership, customer relations, society and media.
QUESTION-DRIVEN LEARNING
NMP is an intensive learning process that builds on collaborative knowledge-creation and question-driven learning. The process is driven by good questions and in each sessions participants are challenged to develop their own questions relating to the the theme at hand. We work together on each others questions – knowledge is created through dialogue.
The starting point for creating engagement and dialogue in the sessions is found in concrete questions posed by leaders in different organisations. Armed with new tools, concepts and research results our participants go about creating their own understanding of and answers to the questions presented. An important aspect of the knowledge-creation process is leaving the meeting room in order to visit, observe and interact with reality. NMP not only develops participants’ understanding of the themes discussed. In NMP we put great emphasis on supporting the change that participants are working on in their own organisations. Going from understanding to real action requires hands-on experiences and a desire to use the new tools in practice.
