Emerging Leaders Program

\"\"

AACB remains committed to its Emerging Leaders*. In years to come, this cohort of individuals will be the driving force behind our industry.

Throughout Australia, businesses across all sectors are currently challenged with finding, keeping and nurturing employees. The business events industry is no different, and AACB wants to support the process in retaining and attracting talent.

In 2022, AACB will deliver a program that explores the next wave of leadership intelligence as our world asks us to draw upon more sophisticated interventions to deal with complex human issues. Led by EEAA Director and Leading Well Executive Coach, Dan Londero, this program will guide and prepare our Emerging Leaders in the next phase of their business mindset that will help them transition. One that helps them transition from good managers to excellent leaders.

The program intends to develop leadership skills, for leading oneself and others by managing mindsets and what has become one of today’s very important issues, wellbeing factors. The emerging field of systemic leadership which puts the wellbeing of the organisational system at the centre will be explored creating awareness of how to read any human system. The program will improve connection and relationships through conversations based on providing and receiving helpful feedback.
