Everything you know about presence, mindset, body language and communication will be redefined. Who better to hear this from?

11.01.2022 Our participant Malcolm Roberts-Palmer says the Emerging Leaders Program is an excellent foundation for building skills and local government experience. 'A key aspect is the group project, which this year involves developing a documentary on local government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic,' he says. 'These interviews have captured the challenges and the successes of local government’s response to the pandemic and provided an important insight in how Victorians are coping with the pandemic on a daily basis.' The group hopes the documentary will become 'a pandemic recovery planning resource,' said Malcolm, who is Acting Coordinator Community Infrastructure and Social Planning, Maribyrnong City Council
