About the workshop
The Defence Force, Emergency Services and Enforcement agencies are the cornerstone of a functional society, ensuring the health, safety and wellbeing of the communities they serve.
The high pressure and ever-changing nature of this work requires a unique blend of reactive and proactive leadership skills and an awareness of not only how to deal with a situation, but to ensure the safety and wellbeing of their team. They need to be able to make quick, informed decisions under pressure, communicate effectively with diverse teams, and adapt to rapidly changing circumstances.
This two day workshop empowers current and aspiring leaders with the skills, knowledge, and mindset necessary to excel in their challenging and dynamic roles.
