The program is open to anyone in the South West who has a desire to learn and develop their skillset, or provide guidance to someone, as well as forming a strong professional partnership.
South West Leaders has been running for 4 years, started by the WA Police & South West District Superintendent Geoff Stewart. It has grown exponentially, and in 2022/23 had 150 participants in the program (75 pairs). It provides fabulous professional development & networking opportunities, and many people in the program have participated multiple times.
The program is FREE to partake in, and does not matter the level, position or title you hold, nor where you are based in the South West.
The Program is supported by a series of events & activities, (some which will incur costs of tickets);
- breakfast events with keynote speakers
- sundowner networking events
- Leadership 30’s & 60’s – online webinars with guest speakers from around the world,
- and a regular newsletter
