'Making Progress' Workshop Series - Webinar 1/4: Manage Self

Are you ready to strengthen your leadership practice?

Making Progress is a new online workshop series designed exclusively for Leadership Victoria Alumni who want to continue strengthening your leadership practice in an increasingly complex and uncertain world.

Grounded in Adaptive Leadership and Vertical Leadership Development, these interactive 90 minute online workshops invite Alumni back into the leadership laboratory. Not to revisit what you learned, but to apply it to the challenges you are facing now.

Take advantage of the exclusive Making Progress Series Pass to secure your place at all four of these valuable sessions.

Join us for the first workshop in the series, Manage Self.

Built on Viktor Frankl's insight that "between stimulus and response there is a space", this interactive workshop explores what happens within us while we are doing the work of leadership. Through reflection, peer learning and experiential practice, participants will strengthen their capacity for self-awareness and develop greater insight into how they respond to uncertainty, conflict and competing demands.

Together, we'll explore themes including:

• Self-awareness and leadership practice

• Competing values and internal tensions

• Leadership narratives and assumptions

• Responding to uncertainty and complexity

• Experimentation as a leadership discipline

You'll leave with:

• Greater awareness of the patterns shaping your leadership

• Fresh insight into how others experience you as a leader

• Practical strategies for navigating uncertainty and complexity

• A leadership experiment to apply in your current context

Part of a four-part series

Manage Self is the first of four connected workshops in the Making Progress series. Across the four sessions, you'll move through the core disciplines of Adaptive Leadership - from understanding yourself, to reading the system, to mobilising others, to acting with judgement when there are no easy answers.

Each workshop builds on the last, so the real value comes from experiencing the full arc. But each session will make sense as a standalone session too.

Secure your place at all four with the exclusive 'Making Progress Series Pass' at a discounted rate, or book each session individually.

Workshop 2: Diagnose Situation - Wed, 21 October 2026 | 12:00 - 1:30 pm: Read the system and tell the difference between technical problems and adaptive challenges.

Workshop 3: Energise Others - Tue, 17 November 2026 | 12:00 - 1:30 pm: Mobilise people through trust, purpose and presence, not authority alone.

Workshop 4: Intervene Skilfully - Wed, 2 December 2026 | 12:00 - 1:30 pm: Know when to step forward, when to hold steady, and how to create progress under pressure.

These workshops are exclusively available to Leadership Victoria Alumni.
