RYLA O-Day is a one-day event for RYLA Alumni, run concurrently across Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific Islands.

This is an exciting opportunity for RYLArians to continue their RYLA journey. Together we will develop our leadership skills, engage in advanced leadership content and connect with fellow Alumni.

Event Details

RYLA O-Day is on Saturday 15 October 2022. There is an Online Program for RYLA O-Day that will be streamed across the region, and In-Person Events will be hosted by local teams.

Local in-person events are currently organised for the following locations: Queenstown, Sydney, Bendigo and Perth. Each event will have its own program which is built around the online program (details provided below). We will add further locations when we receive confirmations from local teams.

The theme for RYLA O-Day 2022 is CONNECTION. The Online Program will feature an amazing Keynote Presentation by Jen Young from Intentional Generations, plus you will engage in facilitated activities and networking opportunities.

FAQs about RYLA O-Day are available on the RYLA Oceania website: https://rylaoceania.org/ryla-o-day/

To stay updated, please join the RYLA Alumni in Oceania Facebook group. Everyone that registers will also receive email updates.

We’re so excited for this RYLA community to come together! We can’t wait to see you.

Keynote Speaker

Jen Young from Intentional Generations will facilitate our Keynote Presentation on CONNECTION.

The way we connect has changed since COVID. We are connecting more-and-more digitally, and less-and-less in person. This has important implications for how we lead and how we engage.

Jen's presentation will help RYLArians:

Explore what they need individually for a meaningful connection
Learn how to build engaging digital connections
Deepen connections with fellow RYLA Alumni
