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.

Upcoming Sessions

FEMALE LEADERSHIP NETWORK NEW SESSION; STAYING FOCUSED, PRIORITISING AND THE ART OF JUGGLING

Life Saving Victoria, through the LSV Female Leadership Network invites all female and male Champions of Change 18 years+ to the last Female Leadership Network event of the year.

This special event will take place on the evening of Thursday, 14 November and will explore the importance of staying focused, prioritising and how to juggle multiple commitments and responsibilities, as we approach the start of the 2019/20 Lifesaving Season and not to forget, the Silly Season. that quickly follows.

During this session we will hear from one of the best expert jugglers in the business Amanda Jacobs, who will share how she maintains focus, priorities and how she has learnt not to sweat the small stuff.

Amanda is an empathetic leader, coach and mentor. She is driven to see individuals and teams succeed in their work, often guiding them through complex change and towards achieving common goals or project outcomes.

Amanda will leave participants feeling enriched and motivated, with some practical tools and strategies that they can draw on in times of need, to make that juggle a little bit more manageable.

This session is relevant to all individuals, regardless of what hat or how many hats they wear, in this fast-paced environment, we are all expected to manager multiple roles or have multiple responsibilities. This session will provide some very practical tips and insight on how to prioritise and how to identify an achievable amount to juggle.

The evening will conclude celebrating the year that was, providing a great opportunity to network, socialise and to acknowledge the wonderful contributions and successes of 2019.
