Core practices for leading with clarity, trust and sustained impact

Leadership is not a single skill. Leadership is a set of everyday practices that shape how you show up, build trust, and influence outcomes over time.

Introduction to Leadership is a practical one-day program for people stepping into leadership (formally or informally) who want a clear foundation. The program introduces core leadership practices that can be sustained over time, including reflection routines, relationship practices that build trust, and in-the-moment tools that improve decision-making and communication.

This program is priced at $595 incl. GST, with an early-bird rate of $495 when booked at least three weeks in advance.

LAUNCESTON: Thursday 25 June 2026, 9.00 am – 4.00 pm
