The Community Leadership Program is a Council funded workshop-based program that provides participants with the knowledge and tools they need to be an influential community leader, and this year, the program celebrates its tenth anniversary.  There is no cost for the selected participants other than their time and commitment to participating fully in the program.

Since its inception, the program has seen many successful graduates gain crucial skills and take their leadership to the next level. One such successful graduate is current Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor, Cr Shane Sali, who says the program is a fantastic way to help members of the community enhance their leadership skills.

“Participants will learn about community leadership, communication approaches, public speaking, goal setting and monitoring, understanding community and diversity, reflection and resilience. They will also explore a topic to be decided by the course participant.”

“I personally found the program a great platform to develop my own leadership skills and I hope that members of the community take up this fantastic opportunity. I look forward to seeing participants’ leadership skills develop for the benefit of our community”, Cr Sali said.

The program is a grass roots leadership program aimed at emerging leaders in the community, or community members who wish to up-skill and enhance their leadership capacity and will involve seven fortnightly sessions commencing in May 2023, along with a program launch and graduation.

Participants must be aged 18 years or older. Applications close Monday 3 April 2023.  

Application forms and further information can found on Council’s Community page.
