This workshop is designed for emerging leaders ready to grow. Together, we’ll explore what high performance really means, uncover your leadership strengths, and identify where you want to develop next. You’ll walk away with a personal focus and practical tools you can use straight away - all in a fun, energising session with your peers.

Standing tall through storytelling
This workshop brings together young leaders to explore what leadership means from a cultural, personal, and community lens. Each group will build a symbolic totem pole not in the traditional sacred form, but as a creative activity drawing from the symbolism of standing strong, carrying legacy, and being guided by values.
