Leadership, Organising and Action
The ATUI is proud to present the internationally acclaimed program developed by Marshall Ganz, delivered in-person in Australia for the first time ever.
An opportunity to learn global best practice leadership skills in organising
Leadership, Organising and Action is an internationally acclaimed program developed by Marshall Ganz at the Harvard Kennedy School.
Following the online program delivered in 2020, the ATUI once again worked with the Centre for Australian Progress and the Leading Change Network to deliver this program.
This year, training was run in-person in Australia for the first time ever, in Melbourne, 17 – 19 September.

In addition to a three day in-person workshop, participants will attend:
- an online interactive session and Q&A with Marshall Ganz

- Enable others to achieve shared purpose under conditions of uncertainty
- Develop leadership, build community around it and turn resources of that community into the power to achieve change
- Develop your public narrative: story of self, story of us, story of now
- Learn the difference between organising and mobilising and why it takes organising to create real change
