Leading positive change

Mayor Kris Hanna spoke and congratulated the participants and presented each leader with a certificate of achievement. Spirit in Unity provided the most amazing and memorable Welcome to Country that the City of Marion has ever seen, with everyone up and dancing, including the Mayor and two Elected Members!

These 21 individuals have experienced a wonderful and empowering journey in both their personal and professional development. Between August and December, the graduates have not only learnt a lot more about council, but also emotional intelligence, resilience, public speaking, conflict resolution, communication, networking and much more.

Last night the audience heard how this program has changed, influenced, challenged, and encouraged each participant to take a lead in their community and make a real difference.

The audience also heard about the connections people have made with each other, how feeling uncomfortable is a good thing and where learning occurs, alignment of their values and the positive changes already made within their street, personal lives, community groups, and workplaces.
