“The Tasmanian Leaders Program provided me with the tools, the opportunity, the knowledge, the strength, the space and the courage to explore and develop myself. I have discovered my values, what inspires, drives, excites and is important to me, and I have been challenged and confronted by what I have learned. The support of the TLP family has allowed this to happen in a safe space. This knowledge and understanding allows me to be more confident in my leadership style and my actions, which is important to who I am and what I will achieve. I now have an amazingly diverse network of incredible friends to keep me on track!”

“The Tasmanian Leaders Program has been a life-changing experience, it has challenged me to look objectively and empathetically at my own character traits and those of my colleagues. The highlight of TLP for me has been the connections and collaborations with the rest of the group. Not only have I developed life-long friendships, I also have a priceless network of incredibly diverse and productive people. The turning point for me during the program was understanding we all have a zero point, a place that’s keeping us stuck. Once I figured out what mine was it turned my life on it’s head and sent me on a new path that is both meaningful and rewarding.”

“I cannot think of a more unique, yet relevant leadership development opportunity than the Tasmanian Leaders Program and have widely recommended it to friends and colleagues. The leadership material presented is excellent and covers a broad range of personal and professional development. I found the generous amount of access and exposure to private, public, and political leaders as well as highly successful entrepreneurs, provided by the Linking Sessions, inspirational and eye opening.”
