With the theme “The Power of Leaders and Leading Processes Towards a Strategic Planning,” the workshop provided the participants with new perspectives on how to build camaraderie and strengthen their leadership capacity to improve the execution of plans and programs in addressing key issues within the region.  The workshop was facilitated by Maria Lourdes F. Japson.
