The Sydney Business School (University of Wollongong) is proud to announce a scholarship opportunity to assist an emerging leader from the local Indigenous Community.  

Applications are invited from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to participant in the two-year leadership program commencing in October 2016.

The program is suitable for people who have demonstrated leadership potential based on professional achievement who would benefit from a program of activities that assists in developing effective leadership skills and encourages them to become more self-aware of their strengths, weaknesses and development goals and appreciate the value that different styles bring to building high performing teams. 

To do this participants undertake a program of events over a two year period including:  Leadership Coaching and Development sessions; four one day Master Classes presented by academics from the Sydney Business School, University of Wollongong;  presentations and discussions with highly experienced Australian business professionals and Federal, State and local politicians; visits to Federal and State Parliaments;  visits to organisations such as Microsoft, Telstra and local organisations, each designed to build on topics covered in the Master Classes;  an opportunity to interact with other high potential leaders; and an individual mentoring program with business leaders from the Illawarra.

In addition, participants can also gain credit points towards a degree program at the Sydney Business School, simply by being a part of the program and completing an optional assessment task. 

The Leadership Illawarra Program is a two-year experiential learning program for the region’s emerging leaders.  Developed by Sydney Business School, RDA Illawarra, and The Illawarra Connection, the program aims to produce inspired and well-connected visionaries who will lead our region into the future.

Applicants should have the support of their workplace, agency or organisation. 
 
Applications close 5pm Friday, 2 September 2016. For more information, contact Karen Bain karen@rdaillawarra.com.au or 0416266302.
Leadership Illawarra Program is hosted by Regional Development Australia (RDA) Illawarra. 2018
