Overview of Program
Leaders are called upon to create a shared vision for the future, set the direction, link roles to purpose and build trusting relationships that facilitate new operating models, focus and delivery. How do you live up to this promise of leadership, imagine a new world and create real value when you yourself are navigating feelings of uncertainty and sitting with the untethered 'unknown unknowns' that are forever present in our current reality?
What if you knew that this deeply unnerving state is the very space needed to find and examine new insights, transform mindsets, develop your personal mastery and unite others in a regenerative vision that enables breakthrough performance?
The future is being written now – the way you take up your leadership role, and enrich others, is the greatest predictor of how you and your organisation will grow, transform and survive in the future. Now is the time to connect with and re-design your leadership practices so that you successfully work systemically, strategically and purposefully.
Legacy Conversations™ offers a framework that has been mindfully and specifically designed by an experienced team of industry thought leaders, organisational analysts and psychologists, to explore and unpack these challenging times.
Through a series of guided conversations, this facilitated peer learning group process helps uncover deep and meaningful insights that lead to new thinking, new tools and new approaches to reset and design a regenerative future through your leadership.
"Legacy Conversations is a unique program in my experience, where you get the opportunity to engage with other leaders and explore what it means to be a leader and how others approach the leadership challenges and dilemmas in a rapidly changing society/environment that we all currently experience."

Co-Created Program
Legacy Conversations™ is an impactful experiential peer learning group approach that is firmly anchored in role performance during times of disruption, transience and instability.
The peer learning environment creates a safe reflective space where the issues at hand are confidentially and openly explored.
Each conversation has a focal theme, where the peer learning group influences and directs their own learning using live business challenges and role dilemmas which reflect the current context.
Theory and frameworks are introduced sparingly to illustrate and reinforce key concepts, learning points and tools.
This contemporary program illuminates new possibilities and has the necessary learning edges to accelerate a tectonic shift in redundant operating models and patterns of thought.
