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.
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.
After selling out in four hours in Launceston, join us in Hobart on Thursday 19 March for a deeper conversation with Dr Joseph Crawford, author of our latest report Building Belonging Through Leadership.
Building on the popular demand of the launch event, we will take a deep dive into how our human need to belong underpins leadership, social cohesion, and productivity, and what leaders can do to foster it in teams, organisations, and communities.
This event is hosted by the Tasmanian School of Business and Economics, University of Tasmania, at The Forest, a new, inner-city hub for learning, research, collaboration and community in 2026.
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.
