Dr. Lynda Folan Facilitating Local Government Professionals Open Programs
IGNITE | Building a Strong Foundation for Your Leadership Journey
IGNITE is designed to build a strong foundation for your leadership journey and help you find your leadership voice. Ideal for emerging leaders, high-potential professionals, new supervisors and team leaders, and specialists stepping into leadership for the first time, IGNITE strengthens the skills and confidence needed to lead people well—particularly within a local government context. Participants will build self-awareness and leadership presence, enhance communication and influence, and develop practical, core leadership behaviours to support the shift from technical expert to people-focused leader. You’ll leave with a leadership toolkit you can apply immediately to lift your impact and lead with greater clarity and confidence.
ACCELERATE | Leading through complexity.
Designed for mid-career leaders and managers, and professionals leading teams, projects or portfolios—particularly those in, or preparing for, senior and executive roles—this program strengthens the capability to lead effectively in complex, fast-moving environments. Participants will build the skills to lead people through change, ambiguity and competing demands, while developing advanced influencing and decision-making approaches. The program also supports leaders to navigate conflict and workplace “game-playing” with confidence, balance operational delivery with strategic thinking, and deepen self-awareness of personal impact. You’ll leave with practical strategies to shift how you lead, enhance outcomes, and increase your overall leadership effectiveness.
Mastering Strategic Leadership to Enhance Your Organisational Impact
Executive Mastery is designed for Executives, Directors and CEOs, and senior leaders with whole-of-organisation responsibility—particularly those navigating governance, organisational politics and high-stakes decision-making. This program strengthens executive presence and strategic authority, while exploring the confluence of strategic thinking and strategic leadership at the highest level. Participants will deepen their capability to lead culture, performance and organisational alignment, confidently navigate complexity, governance requirements and stakeholder pressure, and lead with clarity, courage and values at the top table.
