What the program includes

The Queensland Leadership program covers an exciting and challenging line-up of events and speakers designed to give you access to situations, thoughts and ideas that challenge and inspire.

The 21 program days include some weekend time, occasional evenings and breakfast sessions throughout the year.

A rich and stimulating reading list is provided covering current media, academic texts, leadership theory and case studies, and even philosophy and poetry. Time is also needed for self-reflection exercises and syndicate group work which is to be undertaken outside of program days.
