This National Reconciliation Week, the theme is “Now More Than Ever”, an urge to learn and reflect on the call on all Australians to empower everyone to move forward towards Truth and Reconciliation. Leadership Victoria's work to cultivate leadership, and to do this in the spirit and act of Reconciliation is important to us and the Leadership Victoria Community. This NRW we want to share how we are currently working and committing to build relationships, cultivate opportunities and foster experiences to walk side by side with First Nations Peoples towards Reconciliation.

We are thrilled to launch the most recent iteration of the LV Yearbook! We view yearbooks as invaluable keepsakes, chronicling the memories and milestones of LV and the LV community throughout the year. We are proud to have captured key memories from 2023, showcasing individuals’ contributions and impact in the Williamson Community Leadership Program, as well as our open enrolment programs and partnership programs.

As we establish our path forward, it’s not only a moment for our regular resolutions; it’s a time to be bold. We are delighted to launch the Leadership Victoria 2024-2026 Strategic Plan.

We are thrilled to announce the 40 esteemed leaders who have been selected for the 2024 Williamson Community Leadership Program. Over the next year, the cohort will dive deep into themselves, the nature of leadership and explore vital issues facing our society, expanding the way they see the world and change the way they exercise leadership. This will be an opportunity to for these leaders to gain knowledge, experiences and connections, and also to leave a lasting impact on the Victorian community and beyond.

Last week, we celebrated the graduation of the 2023 cohort from the Williamson Community Leadership Program. Leadership Victoria are proud to welcome these 62 inspiring leaders into our extensive and trusted Alumni community and also recognise them as Williamson Fellows.

On Thursday, October 26 2023, we had the joy of bringing together 300 Alumni, mentors and special guests across all Leadership Victoria programs at the Reignite Alumni Gala. For over 30 years, Leadership Victoria has helped facilitate powerful networks that endure beyond our programs. This is proven by our large, diverse, and esteemed Alumni network that has actively worked to amplify their leadership impact in their organisations, sectors and communities. They all embody the mantra that leadership is not a position, it’s an activity.
