First Peoples Leading — IMPACT
Course Overview
Developing the confidence, capabilities and connections to successfully transition and thrive in leadership roles is critical to achieving tangible, long-term improvements in the social and economic outcomes experienced by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, their families and communities. FPL IMPACT is targeted at First Nations people who are team and people leaders looking to strengthen their impact on team effectiveness. The program uses a strengths-based approach to leading and guiding teams.
Often motivated more by aspiration than ambition, many First People possess the hallmarks of good leadership – purpose, resilience and humility. Yet First People are likely to face a number of unique challenges that must be anticipated, managed and ultimately leveraged in order to realise the purpose that drives their leadership aspiration.
The program is delivered online via live video stream and is uniquely engaging experience. Delivered over 10 weeks, the program is centred around 5 x 2.5 hour workshops, comprehensive e-learning resources and 1:1 coaching.
This is an interactive and participatory program and an opportunity to develop long-lasting connections and powerful professional networks.
