We've launched our 2023 Community Leadership Program as part of our commitment to developing skilled and passionate leaders across the region.
Twenty-one participants attended last week's introductory meeting, signaling the beginning of a nine-month interactive experience that comes free of charge and aims to support emerging leaders with personal and professional growth opportunities.
The Community Leadership Program:
- enhances participants' knowledge and understanding of the Geelong community
- connects participants with like-minded peers
- equips participants with knowledge and tools across a range of topics designed to enhance leadership capability.
The program involves nine full-day, face-to-face sessions on the second Wednesday of each month.
It will be delivered in a variety of venues throughout the City of Greater Geelong and concludes with a celebratory graduation ceremony in November.
Greater Geelong Mayor Trent Sullivan
I applauded this year's participants.Today marks the beginning of a terrific learning opportunity for community members committing to this program.
It's great to see the emerging leaders who have made the decision to come on board and I trust it will be an opportunity for the participants to strengthen their leadership skills.
