 It starts with hope
Sydney Leadership is for people who want to change the world.
People who still believe in hope.
Because complacency and cynicism are the biggest impediments to change.
It’s hard not to be cynical in Australia in 2010. The gap between the rich and the poor is wider than ever. Our public health, education and transport systems are in crisis and we have a national housing shortage. Prison populations have doubled and our levels of crime, drug and alcohol abuse, domestic violence and homelessness are as high as ever. Too many Indigenous Australians are living in poverty, in poor health, locked up or unemployed. And the challenge of climate change seems insurmountable.
But maybe it’s not.
Maybe it really is possible to change.
Sydney Leadership is for people who believe change is possible. And it is for people who are moved to act on that belief. People who are prepared to challenge and surprise themselves, and who are willing to be catalysts for turning around the hardest issues in this State.
Sydney Leadership marries concrete techniques with creative collaboration and unconventional thinking. It equips a network of world-changing leaders with the skills, wisdom and bravery to activate deep change in themselves and in their organisations and to drive lasting change for society as a whole.
