WHO IS IT FOR?
Aimed predominantly at Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander & Australia's South Sea Islander women living and working in regional Australia
Women working in regional areas in not-for-profits, on new business ideas, career development ambitions and startups will benefit.
A key success of the Program is co-creation; celebrating the knowledge of each participant as well as facilitating networks, broader thinking, and other knowledge sharing.
The HORIZON Program is delivered by First Nations X, Atomic Sky & Project Play Up - Leadership for Women, and made possible by support from the Department of Jobs, Tourism, Science and Innovation’s New Industries Fund X-tend grant, Local Buying Foundation, Gold Fields and the Mt Burdett Foundation, as well as the following companies
What does it involve?
Over several months, you will participate in the Program including a 2-Day intensive in the region as well as virtual sessions online with Indigenous leaders, experts and coaches from areas including:
Leadership development
Communication skills
Personal branding
Entrepreneurial thinking
Implementing innovation
Raising money to fund your ideas
Each cohort is limited in size to facilitate valuable two-way learning between trainers and participants. Your knowledge and experience is as powerful as the expert content when shared in this forum.
