Why it’s unique - Leaders Empowering Leaders

All of our cohorts are made up of a mix of cross sectional organisational leaders. This diversity is the ‘secret sauce’ of our leadership development programme. 

Our sponsorship model allows for access and even diversity in each class.

Sponsorship Model

Sponsoring organisations invest $25,000+GST into their leader of choice to participate in the programme. This investment also provides sponsorship for a leader from a For-Purpose organisation.

Who Are Our Alumni?

Meet the people who have participated in our leadership development programme.

“We have met some incredible leaders, worked through some interesting and challenging frameworks. I have learned so much about myself as a leader and how to continue my leadership journey to be both influential and results driven. I have developed a few new concepts for the organisation including our new Wellbeing plan, sustainability practises and redefining how we look at our customer journeys, and how we approach and work with one another. This is just a few of the leadership practises I am utilising but this course has changed my day to day habits, approach to situations and continues to challenge me.”
