BRINGING LEADERSHIP THEMES INTO COLLABORATIVE ACTION.

Our dynamic Leadership Labs are one-day intensives aimed at pinpointing opportunities for impactful leadership in Tasmania, while fostering collective engagement for greater influence. Attendance is by invitation only with our program graduates at the core.

Each Leadership Lab is designed to pinpoint opportunities for impactful leadership in Tasmania, while also contributing to our understanding of where leadership can have the greatest effect on our social and economic wellbeing. Participants will bring their expertise to an informed discussion and workshop, where they can explore new perspectives, develop forward-thinking approaches, and generate innovative solutions with actionable outcomes.

We’re looking to extend and leverage the capacity of this network of change-makers dedicated to enhancing economic, social, and environmental well-being for all Tasmanians.

Complexity in Tasmania

Making sense of complexity in our state and identifying the leadership skills required to navigate it.

Complexity scientist Dr. Aiden M. A. Thornton will work with us to understand how complexity appears in our organisations, communities, and social networks. Together, we will identify the most beneficial skills for understanding and leading through complexity. This will inform our program designs and help others navigate complex situations by providing them with a framework and tools. This opportunity is ideal for individuals passionate about leadership theory and practice and those dealing with increased complexity in their professional and personal roles.
