Overview

With female representation in Victoria, now over 50% and climbing, females are an integral part of the past, present and future of the lifesaving movement. We celebrate the many roles and facets that females contribute, pay tribute to the exceptional role of our female volunteers and acknowledge the opportunity that lifesaving brings for females to be active, participate, develop and lead.

This initiative is something the organisation deems as extremely important part of the future development of our female members and staff. This is another step forward for the lifesaving movement in ensuring that females have the skills, confidence and support to fulfil their future lifesaving and professional ambitions. Moreover to share experiences, inspire and be inspired.

The LSV Female Leadership Network (FLN) is open to all females 18+ within the movement including staff and volunteers members from all roles and facets that have a genuine interest in networking, personal growth and professional development.

Upcoming Sessions

FEMALE LEADERSHIP NETWORK NEW SESSION; ADAPTIVE LEADERSHIP

Life Saving Victoria, through the LSV Female Leadership Network invites all female and male Champions of Change 18 years+ to a very topical and relevant session on Adaptive Leadership.

Adaptive or complex problems challenge us to go beyond traditional ways of working and traditional ways of leading.

This session will explore the keys themes of Adaptive Leadership, Technical and Adaptive challenges, Change and Leading Change, working with difference and working with conflict.

Julie Adhern, an experienced facilitator and coach with over 200 hours of individual and group coaching experience, will teach us the skills, behaviours and mindset required to be an Adaptive Leader.

The Adaptive Leadership framework, which originated at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government, provides a unique approach to deeply understanding how we can exercise leadership; when faced with competing commitments held by individuals and groups within the problem/challenge we are trying to address.

If you want to have the ability to manage change and view conflict as a learning opportunity, we encourage you to register for this powerful and knowledge building session with Julie Adhern.
