I attended a half day workshop in Brisbane last September. Natalie's presentation was excellent. I am pleased to say that earlier this year I wrote an application for a small grant and was successful - I am 100% positive that if I had not attended the workshop the result would have been different - I learnt so much, and would recommend this workshop to anyone wanting to gain grant writing skills.

Andrew Wright

Board and Governance

I’m a governance and leadership expert, working with governments, peak bodies, companies, not-for-profits, and charities, who is passionate about behavioural change and organisational transformation. I have a clear understanding of organisational leadership from all perspectives, and in particular the demands and overlaps of executive and Board leadership.

You can’t engage and influence, or change, if you can’t demonstrate the practical benefits to leaders and young learners alike. Rather than the usual mode of push communication and passive learning, I utilise pull communications, widely recognised as the better route to engagement.

I’ve pioneered and led programmes in adult vocational/corporate education for the past 20 years. I’ve also worked with State and Local Government, managing community services and competitive tendering during the Kennett Government’s transformation of LGA’s, and leading organisational rebuilding as Interim CEO in a Medical Research Foundation, an Early Years Management Cluster and more recently an Aboriginal Arts Charity in remote NT.
