Congratulations to the ELGP 2023 Spring Graduates!

On 22nd November, we congratulated the ELGP 2023 Spring cohort at their Graduation ceremony! 

Participants shared their reflections on the elements of the program including learning about governance topics, the personal leadership retreat, learning about the NFP sector and future aspirations as well as sharing their heartful gratitude to their program coaches and facilitators.

Both coaches, Dr Rita Kleinfeld-Fowell and Claire Gibellini and facilitators, Alicia Curtis and Grace Mugabe commented on what a special night it was, and recognised the participants on their committment over the last four months.  The confidence and sense of connectedness shown by participants is a testament to the support they have shown each other.

Our young emerging leaders have also worked very hard to create an exceptional project, sharing ways that boards can be inclusive of people with disability.   This video includes their insights on what is disability, turning disability stigmas into boardroom strengths and inclusion strategies.

Well done to all participants! 

Your dedication, expertise and passion for the community sector is truly inspiring. I know you will make exceptional board directors.

Thank you too to our wonderful Community Partners who made the program possible, including Jo Sadler, CEO, Wanslea, who made the Community Partner address and all the guests who attended..
