Tasmanian Leaders is a world-class, place-based organisation with national and global recognition for excellence in high impact leadership development and research.
We build leadership capacity and connectivity across Tasmania for positive social, economic and environmental change – locally and beyond.
We believe inclusive and purposeful leadership is critical to our collective futures.
Our suite of programs supports leaders at different life and career stages, with the Tasmanian Leaders Program as our flagship. We also lead social impact initiatives that build diverse networks, foster collaboration, and promote thought leadership.
At the heart of our work is our influential Network, of 1000+ graduates and growing, who continue to lead, mentor and contribute to their communities. Together, we are creating meaningful, lasting change.
Women shaping the future of Tasmania’s industries
This International Women’s Day, we are proudly sharing leadership stories from graduates of the I-LEAD Women in Industry program.
Across construction, agriculture, energy, manufacturing and trades, women are stepping forward to lead — often in sectors where they remain under-represented.
The theme for IWD 2026 is #GiveToGain. When we give opportunity, networks and support, leadership grows — and the benefits ripple through workplaces, industries and communities.
Over the coming week we will share six leadership stories from women shaping industries across Tasmania.
With our 20th anniversary in 2026, we’re proud to celebrate two decades of impact and the promise of what’s still to come.
From one day introductions, to specific deep dives on working with complexity or generative AI – there is something for everyone looking to extend their leadership tool kit.
Our annual highlight event – the Leading at the Edge Symposium – comes to Launceston in 2026.
Join us to explore one of leadership’s most enduring tensions, considering how leaders navigate the natural cycles of change.
Our latest discussion paper, Building Belonging Through Leadership is part of our action research, work that aims to better understand the barriers and enablers of effective leadership in Tasmania.
Authored by Dr Joseph Crawford, an organisational behaviour academic at the University of Tasmania, the paper reveals that belonging isn’t a soft sentiment, it is the foundation of effective leadership. It shows how leaders can create cultures of safety, trust and shared purpose that help support greater productivity and social cohesion.
As a charitable organisation, Tasmanian Leaders is endorsed as a Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR).
In 2026 we are aiming to raise $50,000 to support our Access Scholarships – ensuring wider access to our leadership programs for all Tasmanians.
Your generous tax-deductible gift can help us create further opportunities to expand our impact and support more inclusive and purposeful leadership.
