EL1 – EL2 Leadership, Capability & Professional Excellence Bootcamp

Name: QLD Public Sector AO 7-8: Strategic Thinking & Advanced Problem Solving workshop
Start: 2024-12-12
End: 2024-12-13
Location: Brisbane

Learn how to lead at the top of your game, with tips from the top of the public sector

The more you climb the leadership ranks of the public sector, the more is demanded from your leadership. You will gain more responsibility, have more difficult and complex problems to solve, and you will need to understand the distinctions between your own ideas and the demands of the role.

No one understands these demands, and the skills that are needed to meet them, more than Rebecca Skinner PSM. Having led at the highest levels of the APS, including the extra large agency Services Australia during its most challenging times, she knows exactly what it takes from you, your mindset and your skillset to lead in the public sector environment.

With an emphasis on capability, accountability and integrity, and a valuable blend of ideas, advice and practical tips, this is a learning and development opportunity that cannot be missed. Join Rebecca for two full days of learning and interactive activities to gain the perspective you need to lead at the very top of your game.
