The WACOSS Leadership Development program has been uniquely developed specifically for the leaders in the community services sector.
Are your leaders equipped with the necessary skills to be able to implement change and strategy effectively within your organization? Continuous growth and changes within the community services sector may mean that your current leadership team may be lacking skills and knowledge required to continue delivering outcomes and goals across the board.
The majority of leaders are developed from on-the-job experiences, training and coaching/mentoring; while these are still important, leaders need other ways to develop themselves and others quickly in the right ways to match the new environment. The WACOSS leadership development program is delivered in partnership with MODAL to create stronger teams and more resilient organisations by providing leaders with the necessary skills to enable successful change.
