Senior Executive Leadership Conversations (SES program)
Are you a public sector leader looking to expand your skills and your network? IPAA ACT’s SES program, Senior Executive Leadership Conversations, can help you grow your impact and build your team to create an even better public sector.
IPAA ACT’s SES program, Senior Executive Leadership Conversations, is a six-session program for SES Band 1 and equivalent leaders from across the public sector in the ACT.
The program is framed around challenges facing public administration, and the ongoing attributes and mindset required for excellence as a leader. The content fosters authentic leadership, curiosity and intellectual insight, while supporting participants to build networks and deepen relationships across the sector.
Each of the six sessions focuses on the craft of leading in a complex, volatile environment where specialist expertise alone will not suffice, and where harnessing the experience of colleagues, teams and stakeholders will be increasingly necessary.
