Learning from Bold Minds in Leadership

A leadership development opportunity for staff at all levels.

In times of change, uncertainty and complexity, strong leadership is critical - at all levels of the organisation. The Learning from Bold Minds in Leadership series has been designed to inspire and challenge you to be a bold and courageous leader, regardless of whether you hold a designated leadership role. 

From September 2021 to June 2022, the series will bring you six virtual events featuring Bold Minds - thought leaders, entrepreneurs, consultants, coaches and courageous leaders. Join a range of fresh and innovative world-class speakers to learn about leading (and living) in uncertainty and complexity, developing your leadership style and values, and forging your own leadership path.

Alongside the virtual event series, you’ll have ongoing opportunities to connect, discuss and engage with your peers and colleagues online between sessions.
